Regarding the Catholic Church and Church of England
> Both have seen attendances rise since the pandemic but not to the point of meeting the long-term trend of decline that was occurring beforehand.
Long term decline followed a recent post pandemic recovery.
Some churches are seeing a very recent rise in attendance.
Between the 2011 & 2021 censuses those stating Christianity as their religion in England & Wales declined by 13.1% of the population to 46.2%, this change alone far more than the total numbers of every other religion combined.
This was seismic change, although little commented on. I’d be surprised if the trend had completely reversed, even amongst a single generation.
do any young White Brits go church at all? I don’t know a single one
I literally don’t know a single person in my life who’s ever gone to church.
From when i was a schoolkid, to now a middle ages adult
le based trad caths are just loud and performative.
I know the people who run my local church and the basically spend all their time complaining that fewer and fewer people are coming, which is making it harder for them to actually run things since they depend on donations.
That and the fact that every other week someone tries to rob them.
I think it’s good news, churches refused to adopt many civil norms, same sex marriage and still argue if a woman can be a priest in some denominations.
They’ve done nothing to root out abusers, protecting them for decades whilst owning a multi-billion pound portfolio.
They’ve church belongs to a different time in human existence.
This whole „young people are more religious“ line seems to have come from one dubious report. By some church organisation. Crazy how the media just runs with it, zero interest in actually fact checking.
Like the mostly fictional masses of young people lining up to vote for Reform, the supposed reversal in the decline in churchgoing turns out to be more wishful thinking from the conservative media.
Thank god
Stupidest thing ever
Religious people aren’t even good people, I do nice stuff because it’s the right thing to do, they do it because they want to get into heaven
Prepare for another 15 articles quoting that one Bible Society study.
My son was in his scouts Nativity play in a church. The play took about 5 minutes. The next hour was the priest talking. It was the most boring hour of my life. How do people sit though it every week.
If they are so worried about declining numbers surely making it less boring would be an obvious first step.
Another anti-christian propoganda piece.
Funny how all these ’surveys‘ come out, cherry picking a certain narrative, yet myself and no one else I know have ever been part of one.
