"Religions: Muslim 61.1% (30.6% Sunni, 30.5% Shia, smaller percentages of Alawites and Ismailis), Christian 33.7% (Maronite Catholics are the largest Christian group), Druze 5.2%, very small numbers of Jews, Baha'is, Buddhists, and Hindus (2018 est.)

note: data represent the religious affiliation of the citizen population (data do not include Lebanon's sizable Syrian and Palestinian refugee populations); 18 religious sects recognized."

I've deleted an edit by this user, whose previous edits have been predominantly vandalism. I'm no expert in the subject so someone might like to double check.--Ethicoaestheticist 23:36, 11 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Anything more about this?

edit

Perhaps I can find some stuff.

You would think that a Nation with a history of Christian vs Muslim violence would have a more precise count on the Number of Christians in Lebanon. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jon3800 (talkcontribs) 06:54, 30 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

All information regarding Maronites needs reviewing

edit

Almost the entirety of this article concerning Maronites throughout the history of Lebanon is false and requires a review of information and the application of relevant sources. I request that the article be flagged for being incomplete and poorly cited. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.108.159.67 (talk) 20:14, 14 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

1926 vs. 1932

edit

The article states that there were 84 % Christians in 1926 vs. 51.2 % in 1932. How is it possible that the numbers can have changed so drastically in only six years? --Vitzque (talk) 13:54, 7 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Much of this article has been paraphrased and directly copied from this site by Ayman Ghazi. Comparison is to be found here. Please remove copyright violations immediately. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 23:51, 11 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Christianity in Lebanon. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

 Y An editor has reviewed this edit and fixed any errors that were found.

  • If you have discovered URLs which were erroneously considered dead by the bot, you can report them with this tool.

conflation of Lebanon nation with Lebanon city in Ohio

edit

The last part of this sentence in the section "Churches and monasteries in Lebanon" refers to Lebanon, Ohio and Centerville, Ohio--not related to the middle east at all.

"The main Eastern Orthodox Church, the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch, is St. George Orthodox Cathedral, which is situated in the middle of Centerville in downtown Lebanon." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.251.152.195 (talk) 22:54, 30 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi, IP 172.251.152.195. As the whole section is completely lacking is reliable sources, I've removed the Centerville sentence. Thanks for the heads up. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 05:57, 15 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
