According to the church, it had 243,000 members in 2018.[1] In the 2016 census, about 870,200 Australians identified with the church;[4][5] in the 2011 census, the figure was 1,065,796.
Huh, it appears that telling your congregation that they're evil and abbos are more sacred than the God they allegedly worship is a bad idea. And here I thought it'd be received so well!
See, the people I know who are or were part of the Uniting Church: rich, privately educated, children of doctors and lawyers (or in that mould themselves, now), well-heeled and travelled…
So I honestly think that is what they are doing: going for “niche, wealthy” individuals, and basically fuck everyone else…
Which fits with everything there…
As is often the way, when things go “woke” or hipster…

It’s a civic religion.
We truly have jumped the shark… 😳
