| 520 | |a Evidence that there are small areas of stability and growth in UK church life has been presented as refutation of the secularization paradigm. This would only be valid if the secularization paradigm required that decline be universal, even, and rapid.

It also considers what sorts of changes would be required for any reversal of secularization in the United Kingdom and demonstrates their unlikelihood. | ||
