Roman Catholicism In Costa Rica




The Roman Catholic Church in Costa Rica is part of the worldwide Roman Catholic Church , under the spiritual leadership of the Pope and Curia in Rome .

There are around three and a half million Catholics in Costa Rica - 90% of the total population. The country is divided into eight Diocese s including one Archdiocese .

As with all Catholicism, the use of Birth Control , including Condoms is forbidden by the Pope . This has lead to a population explosion in Costa Rica which has complicated an already overpopulated nation.
