There are now 916,000 people in the country who attend a Church of England ceremony once a year.

There are 930,000 people who attend an Islamic worship on a similar basis.

And apparently it's harder to count muslims.

However, the combined total is still less than 2% of the population.  Which, frankly, is how I like my religious people.

You changed your style? I didn't get any notice!

Why is it more difficult to count muslims?

Yup. Religion should be a minority pursuit. Like potholing.

I completely agree. Would that things were more like that over here.

And which ones are yours, exactly?

but what about all the people who attend such ceremonies much more often than just once a year? i'd think they'd be more worthy of concern...

I assume those figures don't include students who go to services at the church or mosque attached to their primary / secondary school?

Or religious weddings / funerals, for that matter?
