Report says British Christian nationalism driven by infrequent churchgoers

Original: Christian nationalism in Britain driven by people who seldom go to church, says report

A new report finds that Christian nationalism in Britain is being driven largely by people who rarely attend church. The research challenges the assumption that the growing visibility of crosses and other Christian symbols in public life reflects a genuine revival of Christianity. Commentators say the findings suggest the movement is more about cultural and political identity than religious belief, prompting debate about what the trend means for faith and politics in Britain.

Why now: The report's finding that overt Christian identity is growing fastest among non-practising Christians challenges assumptions about a religious revival.
