I live in a town of about 100,000. If you could round up all the church goers of ANY denomination on a Sunday morning I'd be amazed if it amounted to more than 1000. People who go to church on Sunday probably don't lie on a survey and say they don't. The other way round . . . not so much.
Even the CofE says 2%.
