The Constitution guarantees freedom of religion. Although it enforces neither an official nor a state faith, it gives Roman Catholicism a preferential status. According to a 2008 CONICET poll, Argentines were 76.5% '''Catholic''', 11.3% Agnostics and Atheists, 9% '''Evangelical Protestants''', 1.2% '''Jehovah's Witnesses''', and 0.9% '''Mormons''', while 1.2% followed other religions, including Islam, Judaism and Buddhism.<span class="error">Expansion depth limit exceeded</span><br>

The society, culture, and politics of Argentina are deeply imbued with Roman Catholicism. The Church solidified its hold on the territory of modern-day Argentina during the period of Spanish colonial rule from the 16th to early 19th centuries. Although Roman Catholicism is not the official religion of the state, and freedom of religion is guaranteed by the Constitution, Catholic representatives take part in many state functions. <span class="error">Expansion depth limit exceeded</span><br>

Protestant churches have been gaining ground since the 1980s. In Latin America, most Protestants are called Evangélicos (Evangelicals). One survey in 2008 found approximately 9% of the total population were Protestant; most of whom, 7.9% of the total population, Pentecostal. While Pentecostal churches originally attracted mostly the lower class, they show an increasing appeal to the urban middle class. Middle class congregations develop a distinctive style of Pentecostalism, more adapted to society.<span class="error">Expansion depth limit exceeded</span><br>

Brother Muñiz realized that there was a large German-speaking population in Argentina, so he requested help... In response, Brother Rutherford sent Carlos Ott, a German full-time minister, to assist that language group. There were also many Greeks in the country. In 1930, Nicolás Argyrós, of Greek origin, learned the Bible’s message and began preaching to the hundreds of Greek-speaking people in the Buenos Aires area. Around the same time, a Polish man, Juan Rebacz, became one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, and along with another Polish Witness, he entered the full-time ministry. Accompanied by two other full-time ministers, they covered the territory in the southern part of Argentina.<span class="error">Expansion depth limit exceeded</span>
