FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda The study by the House of Commons Library found that the number of non-believers in the UK is set to overtake the number of Christians by 2030.
Christianity is losing more than half a million believers every year in Britain, while the count of atheists and agnostics is going up by almost 750,000 annually, British media reported.
In the last six years, according to reports, the number of Muslims has surged by 37 percent to 2.6 million; Hindus by 43 percent and Buddhists by 74 percent. But the number of Sikhs and Jewish believers fell slightly.
The findings help explain the increasingly forceful warnings from people of faith about the state of religion in Britain.
Secularists argue that Christians should no longer have privileged access in Parliament when the number of those who believe in God is declining so sharply.
Researchers came to this conclusion after studying the Labour Force Survey, which is carried out every year by the Office for National Statistics.
It is the most authoritative survey because of its regularity and its large sample size of 50,000.
It found that in 2010 there were around 41.1 million Christians in Britain – down 7.6 percent over the past six years.
There were around 13.4 million non-believers, up 49 percent over the same period.
“Between the fourth quarter of 2004 and the fourth quarter of 2010, the Christian population fell from 78.0 percent of the population to 69.4 percent, while the group of people with no religion grew from 15.7 percent to 22.4 percent,” concluded the study, Religion in Great Britain.
“If these populations continue to shrink and grow by the same number of people each year, the number of people with no religion will overtake the number of Christians in Great Britain in 20 years, on this measure of religious affiliation,” it added.
