COMMENTARY     

Edria Murray
Staff Editor
3rd June 2005 		In response to mauro gut:

You are correct in stating that Mexico has a high Catholic population. 125,576,000 Mexicans identify themselves as Catholic (almost 90% of the population) making Mexico's Catholic population second only to Brazil. Other religious groups in Mexico are Protestant (6%) with other religious groups making up the remaining 5%.
Giuseppe Saffioti (Italy)
26th January 2007 		You are wrong. We Italians are the most Catholic. We have the most Catholics and we are number one on the list.
Pablo (Coruña)
28th October 2007 		It's true there are a lot of catholics around the world, but the only ones to have what is needed to defend God, Jesus and Freedom are the Spaniards.
