Does Australia have freedom of religion?

- Section 116 of the Australian constitution states: "The Commonwealth shall not make any law for establishing any religion, or for imposing any religious observance, or for prohibiting the free exercise of any religion".

- Furthermore, the Racial Discrimination Act 1975 makes it unlawful to discriminate against someone on the grounds of religion.

- Australia is a secular state, which means that the government does not endorse or support any particular religion.

According to a 2016 report by the Pew Research Center, Australia is the 10th most religiously diverse country in the world. The report found that 61% of Australians identify as Christian, 22% as non-religious, 9% as Muslim, 5% as Buddhist, and 3% as Hindu.
