| I'm a Roman Catholic. I'm curious to know if there are many Christians in Poland. Any idea in mind? |

I think a good portion of Poland is Catholic. Especially since the last pope came from Poland. (Pope John Paul II).
Wikipedia says that Poland is 90% Catholic. |

| I could be wrong but although the majority may be Catholic, there is also a strong Protestant church presence as well. |

However about 95% polish population consist of b a p t i z e d Catholics, only half of them attend Mass regularly. Of those who attend, great number not accept ALL teachings of Catholic Church, including prematrial sex and contraception especially.
There is a lot of within-Church communities and a large spectrum of theological opinions. Catholic religion is taught in schools, but is not obligatory subject.
