Michelangelo was Catholic. You don't get to paint the Sistine Chapel without being Catholic.

Not to put too fine a point on it - he practiced ROMAN catholicism. Catholic simply means universal and there were/are several "catholic" churches.

He was publicly Catholic he couldn't have worked without being Catholic. I don't think he was particularly pious though. Hard to be when it is forced.

officially he was a roman catholic, but probably he was an agnostic or didnt care much about religion as he did about art.

Catholic - - - and quite religious which is evident in the passion he poured into his art. Peace....
