The answer to your subtext question is it varies wildly from country to country. England for instance has an official state religion, but you can freely practice whatever you want and not many laws interfere with that. The US does not, but it can come at a risk to certain religions. Some states have a mandated religion and if you’re found with other views (or even no views) you can face legal consequences.
