Irreligion in Lebanon

Irreligion is uncommon among Lebanese, as Islam and Christianity are the predominant faiths. It is difficult to quantify the number of atheists or agnostics in Lebanon as they are not officially counted in the census of the country. There is a great stigma attached to being an atheist in Lebanon so many Lebanese atheists communicate via the internet. It is difficult not to have your religion stated at birth although a baby in 2014 in Lebanon made history in doing so.
