Paganism rising quickly in the UK

The Institute for the Impact of Faith in Life on Wednesday released the results of a poll that surveyed 2,774 Britons who have recently changed their religious beliefs. Besides atheists and agnostics, the largest group, 11 percent, was comprised of respondents who defined themselves as merely “spiritual.” Just under half of these people identified as pagan, and 7 percent of them identified as Wiccan, a type of modern paganism. Christians in the United Kingdom who forsake their faith are turning to paganism more than any other religion: Census data shows that the number of Britons who identify as pagans has increased by almost 30 percent since 2011. This blatant rejection of the Bible and God was prophesied, as was its consequence to national security.
