Increasing diversity in religious identification in Australia: comparing 1947, 1991 and 1996 census reports.
"A comparison of [Australia's] 1996 census data on religion with that of 1991 reveals a number of trends: the proportion of Australians reporting that they have ¿no religion' continues to grow; mainstream Christianity, apart from the Catholics, continues to decline as a proportion of the population; and many small religious groups are flourishing. As well as 4.8 million Catholics, 500,000 Orthodox and 201,000 Muslims, Australia has 12,000 Sikhs, 3,000 Taoists, 8,000 Spiritualists and 2,000 Satanists."
