Religious Toleration in South America

ALL religions are tolerated in every South American State except Ecuador; from this State all other forms of worship than the Roman Catholic are excluded, but in Bolivia the Roman Catholic religion is the only one which can be publicly practiced. Other forms are tolerated in a limited sense. In most of these republics the Roman Catholic is the religion of the State and people, but in some Church and State are very distinctly separated, as in Brazil.
