Can anyone explain why the Evangelical Free Church of America does so many, many missionary trips to Mexico, when it's a predominantly catholic country? I mean, there are definite ideological differences involved, but I wasn't aware the two churches actively tried to convert each other's members.

[edit] Easter

I'm removing this:

"Some of them however, do not celebrate Easter because they think that the Easter Bunny is the devil. Instead of celebrating Easter, they like to eat Mexican Pizzas."

because it's obviously untrue and just stupid. I think the article should be rewritten though, by someone more experienced than I am.--PARCGOP 14:09, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Contradiction?

This article says that 95% of people in Mexico are Roman Catholic. The Mexico article states that 95% of people are Christian, and only 89% are Roman Catholic. Which is correct, or am I just confused? Yumecosmos (talk) 02:20, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rewriting

I have imported the Religion section from the article on Mexico and integrated the information that was only on this article. I also moved around paragraphs and added a subtitle to make reading easier. Finally I removed the stub templates and replaced it with the expand one. --Marianika (talk) 16:32, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] What about non-believers?

What about atheists, agnostics, deists in Mexico? How many Mexicans actually believe in God? Is there any data about that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.196.243.113 (talk) 22:41, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
