Churches, sure thing. But true believers?. Gimme a break.
1 John 1–3._ 1Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, 3and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God.

Re: Christianity "a generation away from extinction" in Britain
..then we will see the absolute demise of Britain. Not from lightning bolts or some cosmic death punch or anything, but the world will see just what happens when a nation closes its heart, minds and doors to the Creator, and try in their pathetic human "strength" and "free will" to be God to themselves. Heartbreaking.

The end of Christianity on the planet earth, is the end of freedom...HELL ON EARTH!

Anywhere, including the United States, that Christianities' tenets are removed, the less free that place becomes. It is so evident...

Actually, it is that freedom that is the cause of all this mess. The West gives people a license to sin. Anything goes because we are free. Free to sin. But are you really? Or are you just in bondage to sin?

Re: Christianity "a generation away from extinction" in Britain
I think that it is great that people in The U.K. are finally getting the answers they need and deciding to drop Christianity as a way for the state to control their minds.

After all, it is proven that the Flavians invented Jesus. Why follow a fictional character as God?

I wonder how many have returned to the Paganism of their ancestors?

I don't even know why you are asking this question. Islam is a minority to both atheism and Christianity. Christianity isn't dying off because people are converting, it is dying off because Christians are dying of old age.

Where's the proof that there isn't a God?

Historically when man relies on himself things turn into utter destruction and chaos because man is inherently sinful and greedy.

Cool. Next step, America! The more people stop believing a bunch of ancient woo and mumbo jumbo, the faster we can find out the real answers to the universe's mysteries and solve problems instead of praying to some nonexistent being to do it for us.

LOL, No, I simply don't even know what you are asking, it looks like a big old straw man to me.

I do have statistics though. From the 2011 census:

33.2 million identify as Christian, down 5 million from the 2001 census.

14.1 million identify as Atheist UP 6 million from 2001

2.7 million identify as Muslim up 1 million from 2001

I do admit it is my own experience as a Brit tells me the bishop is correct and this trend will continue as Christianity dies with our old folk.

Being from Britain also I agree with the fact that the newer generations aren't believing the bible and see them as fairytales.

Kids today have a discerning taste to the crap they wish to ingest and would rather do something interesting.
