If you need information about chilean religion, I can help you.
I'm from Chile (if my english is bad, excuse me, I speak spanish). About the religión, Chile has "libertad de culto" (liberty of religion, in chile not exist a religion official), however exist a mayoriti on catholics, and de catholic church is a important institution in this country and plays important rolls in defense of human rights (derechos humanos) in time of pinochet's militar regimen. Existing important minoritys protestant, and few hebrew and moslims. Alberto Hurtado is a saint very leved in Chile, and exist a representation lecal of the virvin mery, "la virgen del carmen" (the virgin of carmen".
the religion in chile (and in south america) has elements christians and indians. In this mode, exist a importan party in the north of chile: "la virgen de la tirana" (the virgin of La Tirana). This party is a festival, and the people dance disguised in honour of the virgin: but this festival is originated in the ritual dance of aborigenes fron Atacama desert, and the spaniard conquestor transform the festival.
Do you have conform?
[edit] Education
"Chile has one of the best school systems in South America." Is this a joke?
