Summary/Abstract: The post-communist period marks the development of the process of revitalization of religion. It underlines its own specific qualities through the personal religious identification, the religious prac-tice and the religious (knowledge) education. The personal religious identification is distributed through numerous religious congregations. The national entity appropriately colorizes the religious identification. The religious practice develops through pragmatic practice of the religious customs and traditions which accompany the major religious celebrations.
