UK secularism on the march

http://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/ma...ales-study.

Read it and weep yanks !

"The number of people who say they have no religion is rapidly escalating and significantly outweighs the Christian population in England and Wales, according to new analysis."
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful. — Edward Gibbon

England has been in steady decline since the fall of it's world dominating empire. This is just another Par example for the course she is on.

Well according to you, all people need to do is ASK... all they need is a Bible and a specific mindset. Organised religion or lack of should have nothing to do with it. But you can save the day Drich! All you gotta do is figure out a way of spamming us Brits with "Just ASK!" leaflets and you're laughing. But if any comes to my house, it's going straight in the bin along with all the other Get Rich Quick schemes  Tongue

God has no power here. Or if he does, he's scared to use it.

I'm sitting in the sunshine flipping him off. Good times.

I'm jealous.  We're still stuck with shitheads like Dripshit.

Yeah, but we'll probably be taken over by Muslims at some point. So either way the UK is going to shit, really.

You mean improving as a society.
