How important is the religion in australia?

Answer 1

Australians are generally laid back and casual in terms of their lifestyle, so following religious ceremonies (as a country) isn't as strict as in some countries (of course religious groups will still meet) however it isn't extremely strict and no one religion is expected. There have been few major conflicts between religious groups in Australia and generally religion just isn't brought up in conversation! Nowadays it is common for many people (in Australia at least) to be Atheist or not believe in any one religion. That being said there are always going to be religious extremists or those who follow it more closely than others.
