Religion in Pharexia is characterized by a diversity of religious beliefs and practices. Throughout Pharexia's history, religion has been an important part of the country's culture. Religious diversity and religious tolerance are both established in the country by the law and custom; the Canon of Prosperity and Fidelity has declared the right to freedom of religion to be a fundamental right. As of 2019, nearly seventy-five percent of Pharexians claim membership to the Trúathi Church of Pharexia.

In 2001, the church's governing body released a series of proclamations which stressed the importance of the family and highlighted the necessity of the traditional nuclear family. In a shock to many, the proclamations stated that "marriage between a man and a woman [is] the only marriage ordained in the Edda. It's crucial we to return to what's stated in our scripture." At the time of the announcement, same-sex marriage was not illegal in Pharexia and had not been an issue of contention. The announcement resulted in the Pharexian legislature swiftly abolishing the practice and the annulment of existing same-sex marriage certificates. An amendment offered by the Science Party was approved by the legislature that allowed those already in same-sex marriages to retain their marriage benefits.
The document further says that "gender is an essential characteristic of individual premortal, mortal, and eternal identity and purpose." It says that the father and mother have differing but equal roles in raising children.
