[Untitled][edit]

The vast majority of the Balinese follow one religion - Hinduism that is mixed with pre-Hindu mythologies and Animism, and Buddhism. A minority of creole Balinese in Bali that are descended from Javanese Muslim fathers and Balinese mothers follow Islam - more commonly in a nominal way. Another even smaller group of Balinese - which total up to about 30,000 of them- are actually Sasak refugees - either follow Christianity or more commonly, a blend of Christian beliefs that is blended with Hinduism. This group of people, however are considered socially inferior and were regarded as outcasts. Many of them might be either the wives of Caucasian husbands or children of Dutch or British men and Balinese women.

Please cite your sources. There are many kinds of Muslims on Bali not only of mixed ancestry. Furthermore the Christians are not of Sasak ancestry. There are noted exemples of indigenous Balinese, such as the last raja of Buleleng. Meursault2004 29 June 2005 00:09 (UTC)

There is a trend of anti-Islam and -Christian remarks in the Balinese, Osing, and Tenggerese articles. It's probably the same person. 24.124.61.165 06:17, 18 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Religions in Bali[edit]

It is true that the majority of Balinese are Hindu, but there are also peoples of all faiths from all over the world who live in peaceful coexistence with what this author crudely calls "navite" Balinese. Any suggestion that they are considered "inferior" or "outcast" in any way is totally ridiculous and offensive. I suspect this person doesn't not cite their source because they have no source, but are rather writing on basis of their incomplete and inaccurate knowledge.

I've never heard of "Carnival" as a Balinese traditional festival/observance; maybe as a commercially-oriented promotion but that should not count in this context. My Balinese wife agrees.

Tolong jangan di edit dengan menambah suku yang tidak memiliki hubungan dengan Bali, seperti contoh Sundanese does not have any relationship with Bali ,Sundanese more related to Javanese . — Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.193.7.81 (talk) 01:56, 13 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Added information on Water Temples[edit]

I have done research into the Pura Titra system of water temples, and plan to add a short section on this topic to the article under its own heading, with links to the main pages on Pura and other relevant information. My sources are cited, and I hope this section gets people interested in researching the topic more deeply. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anthropology Class 205 (talk • contribs) 23:47, 29 October 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anthropology Class 205 (talk • contribs)
