More women than men were ordained to the priesthood in the Church of England for the first time last year.

In addition, 19 dioceses, nearly half the total of 44, experienced an increase in church attendance, according to statistics published yesterday.

The figures run counter to the gospel of a dying religion preached by secularists such as Dr Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens. They show instead an established Church that is surprisingly resilient, given the increased ferocity of attacks on all faiths by unbelievers. They also give further credence to the lesson of history that Christianity in particular thrives when persecuted.
