Pew Research found in 2013: "Since the Portuguese colonized Brazil in the 16th century, it has been overwhelmingly Catholic. And today Brazil has more Roman Catholics than any other country in the world – an estimated 123 million." <ref>https://www.pewforum.org/2013/07/18/brazils-changing-religious-landscape/</ref>

Brazil’s Catholic population fell slightly from 125 million in 2000 to 123 million a decade later, dropping from 74% to 65% of the country’s total population."
