According to a questionnaire Finns' religious views are a private matter Finns' religious views and attitudes are private in nature. The information comes from a questionnaire produced by the Church Research Centre. Finns' faith cannot be seen in regular churchgoing, but rather as a religious undertone and private religiosity.
Prayer seems to be the most common form of Finnish religious activity.
Finns attend church services or participate in other public religious activity much less frequently. Of other parish activities it is music that attracts most people. Confession has not yet become an established part of Finnish religious life, although the practice of confession is being revived in the Lutheran Church. As far as the media are concerned, individual customs are more popular than public ones. The information is based on a questionnaire produced by the Church Research Centre for Finnish Gallup.
