Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30590368 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. @Starknight921 |

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 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? |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 50110069 Do you have any statistics on people leaving Islam in Britain? All you hear about is people converting from one religion to another... 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. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 50110069 United Kingdom 11/20/2013 11:23 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So in other words you don't have any statistics and my question was somewhat inconvenient? Got it... 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 [link to metro.co.uk] 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. |

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