Although Brazil has a great number of religious denominations, about seventy-five percent of its population profess to be Roman Catholics. This makes of Brazil the largest Catholic nation in the world. 
The Fifth Annual World Social Forum (WSF) held in Porto Alegre, Brazil, from January 26-31 garnered almost no media coverage in the United States. Timed to coincide with the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, the WSF drew 155,000 activists from 135 countries, who assembled to challenge Bush's agenda.
The defining element of the 2005 World Social Forum, in Porto Alegre, Brazil, is that the superstar of previous years was heckled off of the stage: Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva being perceived as a sell-out by the movement that helped propel him into power. 
The entire mainstream Brazilian media, without exception, is anti-American, anti-Bush, and anti-Israel, including those publications, which due to their past keep a conservative façade, even though they are by no means conservative today. 
Criticized by some for being little more than a debating society and a “one stop shopping center for the left,” this year’s fifth annual World Social Forum in Porto Alegre, Brazil marked a major breakthrough for the Forum. It served as a pivotal venue for the discussion and critique of progressive political, social and economic strategies to make “another world possible.”
