[[Christianity]] is the largestpredominant '''religion in Tanzania''', representing 63.1% of the total population. There are also substantial [[Muslim]] and [[Animism|Animist]] minorities.
 
Current statistics on the relative sizes of various religions in [[Tanzania]] are limited because religious questions have been eliminated from government census reports since 1967.
