Oyashima's constitution guarantees full religious freedom. 74% of the Oyashimane are religious, with 68% of the total population practicing {{wpl|Shinto}}, 4% professing {{wp|Confucianism}}, and 3% are Christian, of those 95% are of the [[Mercantile Reform Protestant]] denomination. The level of participation in religious ceremonies as a cultural tradition remains high, especially during festivals and occasions such as the first shrine visit of the New Year for the {{wpl|Shinto}}. Confucianism from [[Daxia]] has also influenced some Oyashimane beliefs and customs. After [[Operation Kipling]], [[Occidental]] customs originally related to Christianity (including [[Occidental]] style weddings, Valentine's Day and Christmas) became popular as secular customs among many Oyashimane in the urban areas. In the 21st century, religiousness amongst the youth has fallen as trends towards international norms via the internet and globalization have become the standard.
