Church figures
This may well be true but the membership figures are rather meaningless as it is generally recognised that only one third of the membership of the Kirk attend church regularly, another third come occasionally and one third never come at all.
Church membership is much higher in the United States but the most active churches in America are those that are not part of a nationwide organisation but stand alone, and this may well be true in this country.
