Kenya
Strongly Christian (~85%, mostly Protestant and Catholic with very large Pentecostal scene) and a Muslim coastal and northeastern minority (~11%).
Localized version for English
Kenya is mixed Christian as a country. The dominant religious context is: Strongly Christian (~85%, mostly Protestant and Catholic with very large Pentecostal scene) and a Muslim coastal and northeastern minority (~11%).
Kenya is religiously plural, and the deconstructions happening here range across denominations. Pick the pillar page that fits the specific tradition you came out of — Catholic, evangelical, Pentecostal, or Orthodox — rather than reading "Christianity" as a single category.
Leaving in Kenya can cost a lot. In some communities and regions, family shunning is normalized, employment can be affected, and disclosure carries real social risk. Many people who leave do so in stages and live as quietly non-believing for some time before any open conversation.
