54% of Uk males non-religious or agnostic.

[Fidel_Castronaut]

I was watching Trinity Broadcast Network with my mother, and they said church attendance in UK is 6%.
According to this poll 40% of men and 60% of women are NOT atheist/agnostic. Is the low church attendance of 6% a result of Christian laziness or is it a result of competing religions like Islam?

People will say they are Christian but they won't be regular church goers. They're default Christians in that they only think about it for specific situations such as filling in forms, weddings etc.

Indeed, aka 'nominal' Christians.

It's also why the respondents who say they are Christians to the official UK census (england and wales) conducted every decade is higher than, say, the BSAS survey which is intermittent. The official census is a government endorsed census and so people feel a need to respond in a more formal manner.

This explains the disparity between why 21%~ said they dont have a religion in the census whilst in the BSAS it was around 50%~.

A lot of christian sects in the UK will go extinct within the next decade or two. Methodism for example has seen numbers drop year on year for almost 30 years:
