CWN Editor's Note: Among young people in Europe, a rising number profess no religious beliefs, a new survey finds. In the Czech Republic, 91% of “millennials” (aged 16 to 29) have no religious affiliation. In Sweden, Estonia, and the Netherlands, the number of millennials without religious ties is over 70%. Poland is Europe’s most religious country, with only 17% of young adults saying they have no religious ties.
In the United Kingdom, the survey found that Catholic millennials outnumbered Anglicans, by 10 to 7%. Anglicans in that age group barely outnumbered Muslims, who accounted for 6%.
