Christianity in England : ウィキペディア英語版 | Religion in England
The established religion in England is the Anglican Church of England, a denomination of Christianity headed by the Queen and with special position within the Constitution. Other Christian traditions include Roman Catholicism, Methodism, and the Baptists. After Christianity, the religions with the most adherents are Islam, Hinduism, Neopaganism, Sikhism, Judaism, Buddhism, and the Bahá'í Faith. There are also organisations promoting irreligion, atheist humanism, secularism, and Satanism. Other religions have been notable in the past: Celtic paganism and Druidry in Iron-Age Britain; Roman and Gallo-Roman paganism and Mithraism under the Romans, and Anglo-Saxon and Norse paganism during the Middle Ages. Many of England's most notable buildings and monuments are religious in nature: Stonehenge, the Angel of the North, Westminster Abbey, and Canterbury and St Paul's Cathedral. The festivals of Christmas and Easter are widely celebrated in the country. ==Statistics== Note that Christians were not counted by denomination in the 2011 census in England and Wales, although they were in Scotland and Northern Ireland. The largest Christian denomination is the Church of England, which is also the state church; the second largest is Roman Catholicism. Free church Protestants account for most of the remaining Christians.
