It pleases me to no end that Wales has the highest proportion of religiously "non-affiliated" persons in the UK. Maybe now we can convert all these useless disused chapels and churchs into shelters for the homeless, and finally they will find an actual use for the greater community.

But there is at least one person in Wales who follows the religion of the sun and believes the sun to be the sole authority whose word on climate is final beyond any mortal force to challenge. 
Islam spreading in Europe is pretty much the worst thing that could happen. But to be fair, non-believers ARE on the rise. The main thing is to check how "serious" these new Muslims are. If they are mild, cherry-picking ones like we have in France, things should be not too horrible.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity. Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist. You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
All greatness are temporary. The really of your small population, vulnerable trade routes, and no natural resource caught up with you.
Btw, the British empire was never the largest. Mongol empire had more land area and controlled more of the world's population.
