From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Folk religion in Argentina comprises a range of religious practices, beliefs and expressions that have emerged within the popular classes of the country and outside the formal doctrines and organised structures of institutionalised religions.[1] The most widespread form of popular religiosity in Argentina is folk Catholicism, given that Catholicism has historically been the dominant religion in Argentina.[2]
There is also the case of traditional Catholic saints whose cult has been magnified to somewhat heretical dimensions, like Saint Expeditus, Saint Cajetan, Saint George, Saint Benedict and Mary, Untier of Knots.[3]
