Many inhabitants of Abkhazia are Orthodox Christians, With significant minorities adhering to Islam and the Abkhaz neopaganism, or the "Abkhazian traditional religion".[2] The influence of this last has always remained strong and has been experiencing a revival through the 1990s and 2000s.[3]
There exists a very small number of adherents to Judaism and Jehovah's Witnesses, as well as non-believers.[4] The Jehovah's Witnesses organization has officially been banned since 1995, though the decree is not currently enforced.[5] According to the constitutions of both Abkhazia and Georgia, the adherents of all religions have equal rights before the law.[6][7]
