2016 Report on International Religious Freedom: Greece

U.S. Department of State, published August 15, 2017

The U.S. Department of State's 2016 International Religious Freedom Report on Greece, published August 15, 2017, relaying a 2015 poll by the Kappa Research Firm finding 81.4 percent of the population self-identified as Greek Orthodox, 2.9 percent as belonging to other religious groups, and 14.7 percent as atheist.

Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier
2
The annual U.S. government report on religious freedom conditions in Greece, relaying a named local pollster's figure (Kappa Research Firm) rather than presenting the State Department's own fielded survey; a credible institutional secondary account of a named poll rather than a primary demographic study in its own right. The state.gov original did not return readable text; this citation instead relies on its ecoi.net mirror, the European Country of Origin Information Network's archive of the same document.
