Religion in the United Kingdom and in the countries that preceded it has been dominated, for over 1,400 years, by various forms of Christianity. In 2011 nearly 60% identified themselves as Christians in the National Census 2011, 25.7% responded 'no religion', and 7.2% gave no answer. (7.6% of the population are Muslims, Hindus, and other religions). In the 2015 BSA survey only 42 escribed themselves as Christian, whilst the majority (49%) of UK residents said they are of 'No Religion. Trends are showing that fewer individuals are viewing religion positively, with 79% of people agreeing that religion is a cause of much misery and conflict in the world today. Regular church attendance has steadily decreased since the middle of the twentieth century. Immigration has dampened the trend, and increased adherence to other religions.
