Judaism began in the place now called Israel. Christianity also began there, as an

offshoot of Judaism. Today, slightly more than half of the world's Jews live in Israel,

and they comprise about 70% of the country's population. Muslims, Christians, and

Druze also make up significant segments of the population, and each of the world's

religions is represented in Israel to some degree.

Israel has no official state religion. There is no religious 'test' for citizenship, land

ownership, business ownership, school admission, or the right to vote. There is

no religious test for the right to stand for election to local governments or to the

nation's parliament, or to argue or to judge in the nations courts, and these

positions are held by Jews, Muslims, and Christians.
