The chapel outside my flat in central London is filled every Sunday with African families singing hymns and listening to some good old brimstone sermons. It’s rather heartening.

The Church abdicated its responsibility for the souls of the British people in March 2020 when it cheerleaded the erosion of civil liberties, and subsequently closed all churches.

Those conservatives that care about defending our country and its history, please find a non-woke church (there are plenty left!), and keep the attendance up.

Please please please.

I do my best to keep my local church going, but it is hard. If every conservative went once a month, then we would not have problems.

The various traditional Christian churches are in dire condition in England. This is because the leaders of those churches have given up evangelising in England, although they have plenty of paid posts that are supposed to promote evangelism. Instead they concentrate on collecting funds to pay their functionaries and distribute funds to more successful overseas branches. As their rhetoric becomes more secular their religious following declines. Christian immigration does help Christianity but less the old organisations and more new churches that actually believe in evangelism. Methodism, for example, concentrates it’s efforts on closing churches that are seen merely as an expense.

Very true, just as Irish immigrants brought the Catholic Church back to England, African, Filipino, and Indian immigrants will keep it going. I observed that at least half of the congreation weren’t British at the mass I went to in central Newcastle.

I love visiting small old churches and looking round their graveyards at the headstones – it certainly reinforces one’s sense of mortality and the temporary nature of material gain.
Even those who were buried there just a hundred years ago could never have envisaged the changes that have occurred here in our society over such a short period.

As the map of nonreligion at the top of this article reveals, London and other diverse cities, along with the North West, form light islands of faith in a blue sea of secularism, reflecting the fact that virtually all of the world’s population growth takes place in the highly religious global South, not the secular developed world.
I’ve read this paragraph several times, but still can’t fathom the link between the map and the assertion that “all of the world’s population growth takes place in the global South, not the secular developed world”
Am i missing something?
In general though, the link between practising Christians and immigration is interesting. More than 50% of the pupils at the Catholic school i attended are now from ethnic minority backgrounds, and whilst it’s a very long time since i attended a church service, anecdotally this is also the only way that the local Catholic church can remain viable.

The map linked is incredible. You can zoom in pretty much all the way to single houses (and certainly individual roads). Fascinating to see.

Religion is strongest in the developing world. A bit like the tobacco industry.

Does mr Kaufmann really care about the number of Christians in the UK, or does he have a different agenda
Like the Scorpion and the Frog, its in his nature
