This statistic displays the reasons to leave a religion in Italy in 2017. When respondents in Italy who were raised within a religion were asked why they left it, 72 percent of the participants stated that they had gradually drifted away from religion. No longer believing in the religion's teachings was cited by 35 percent of the respondents. In contrast, only six percent said to have left their religion to marry someone from outside their own religion.
