The majority of Israel people are the followers of yuda religion with the holy book Torach old testtament as has been given by God through Moses prophet.So Judaism is the state religion.They prayed on every saturday that is called Sabath day.They weep on the wall beside the Asqa mosque as a historical mosque for muslims and also near a cathedral church for christians.So Yerusalem is a sacred place for the 3 religion followers.

it is secular over 70% although my people there celebrate the holidays-they do not belong to synagogues or temples-10% aprox follow the religion of Chasidism -eastern religion which some of them offer a chicken for blood atonement-yet less then 10% are actually Jewish=Messianic Jews-believing Moses -"without the shedding of blood there is no atonement for sins" the context of Leviticus 17:11 and fulfilled as promised in Isaiah 52:13-53:12 He will be exalted
but first marred more than any man, and lay down his life to make atonement for sins, He will be despised and rejected, die with the wicked and be burried with the rich.
aproximately 15% is arab most of whom are muslims-and interestingly other than the plo-most are very good neighbors with the Jewish people who do not for the most part practice Biblical Judaism.
aproximately 5% catholic and protestant too

Heritage and religion are often mixed up when quoting statistics about Israel.
No one really knows how many Israeli's actually practice some form of the Jewsih faith, but the published statistics are way overblown, in that respect.
My guestimate is that well over 65% of Israeli's are either agnostics or atheists.

There is no consensus among researchers as to the best methodology for determining the religiosity profile of the world's population. A number of fundamental aspects are unresolved:
Whether to count "historically predominant religious culture[s]"
Whether to count only those who actively "practice" a particular religion
Whether to count based on a concept of "adherence"
Whether to count only those who expressly self-identify with a particular denomination
Whether to count only adults, or to include children as well.
Whether to rely only on official government-provided statistics
Whether to use multiple sources and ranges or single "best source(s)"
