Atheism was promoted until 1985, but Guyana has had full religious freedom since then. There is a vital, vibrant and growing evangelical witness, and Evangelicals are found in all levels of society. Most of the Afro-Guyanans are Christians, but nominalism is widespread. Stable two-parent families are rare and syncretistic beliefs common.
