But yes, Christianity is the majority religion in the UK.Ravensmash
Only on paper, if you looked at church attendance and the like it's much lower.
In a poll conducted by YouGov in March 2011 on behalf of the BHA, when asked the census question 'What is your religion?', 61% of people in England and Wales ticked a religious box (53.48% Christian and 7.22% other) while 39% ticked 'No religion'. When the same sample was asked the follow-up question 'Are you religious?', only 29% of the same people said 'Yes' while 65% said 'No', meaning over half of those whom the census would count as having a religion said they were not religious. Less than half (48%) of those who ticked 'Christian' said they believed that Jesus Christ was a real person who died and came back to life and was the son of God.Humanism dot org

Church attendance doesn't exclude having a belief system.

They need food, water, electricity and condoms. Bibles should be low priority

then they can pray to the right God and ask for food and water and clothes and stuff.

Is it sad I actually said "Why do they need condoms" for a second? Then I remembers AIDS and felt bad afterward.

What Africa needs are the following:

  1. Condoms
  2. Condoms
  3. Condoms

People are, excuse me for using this term, crapping out kids over there. Overpopulation starts and ends with countries in Africa and some in Asia.

Condoms are one thing, education and political and cultural stability are also needed.

I think TC is 12 year old proclaimed atheist trying to make Christians look bad. Move on folks, nothing special here.

Bibles are cheap and low cost solutions that offer guidance and emotional support. I believe that religious groups and christian missionaries supply bibles not the governments.

And btw who's 'TC'?

They do. I have met quite a few missionaries who have done just that - some of whom had to actually translate the Bible into their native language first. Of the missionaries I have been affiliated with the missionaries also start schools and hospitals as well as teach the people how to build wells, better farms, and more effective housing. In fact, one of my professors lives there in Ethiopia for a good portions of the year.

For the record, even if TC was a troll, as much as a religious guy that I am, I don't think Bibles are what Africa needs the most...

I actually agree that the best response would not be to simply ship a massive number of Bibles to them, but rather, to simply love the people by helping them in every way possible (see my post above). However, I do believe helping the people spiritually by way of teaching and giving out the Bible is one, note one, way to love them.

You said Bible so I presume you think the Christian is the correct god, right? Well if you knew anything about religion you would know that god doesn't magically conjure up stuff because you asked him to. So I guess you must not be serious or your very ignorant to your own religion.

its not quincadince that america just so happen to be the most best country and also the most christian. the other christian countries like france england ireland canada and australia also just so happen to be the best unless you want to say that its because they mostly have white people but thats racist.

Deliberate misspellings prove fake.

Well that's an interesting take... the US is keeping Botswana down so it can climb on it's back.

Who are you to say what god is the right god? I think if someone were to put you in a hole where nobody knows about and you prayed to god for food and water, do you think it would really come to you?

He probably meant the edible variety.

But yeah... clearly not a sincere topic, despite it's potential for fun and games.
