The Number of Atheists in The UK Rises, As Christians Fall

It has been revealed in figures from the 2011 Census that the number of people who identify themselves as Atheists has risen by over 6 million.

 

The number of admitted Christians in England and Wales has fallen dramatically in the past decade by 4 million. According to Religion News Service reports, the figures of self proclaiming Christians stood at 33 million last year.

 

This alarming news should concern our brothers and sisters in Christ, especially in the UK where there has been such a serious decline.

 

Expelled Christian Student Reaches Settlement With University

Julea Ward’s former university.

 

The case of an Eastern Michigan University Counselling student who was kicked out after refusing to counsel a gay client has finally reached a settlement in court.

Christian Julea Ward has been awarded $75,000 (around £46,000) from the university and was informed that the expulsion will be removed from her record.

The graduate decided to refer an assigned client to a colleague after she bore the task of counselling a client on same-sex relationships.

In January, it was ruled that Ward’s faith may have been the reason she was expelled, and the case was sent back to a lower court.
