Oh, to be fair, it's not JUST the Sydney Calvinists holding up the fort, Queensland is awash with Christians of all stripes, but I guess it is easy to say "Sydney to the rescue" when you compare to say Melbourne or Adelaide where there's only a tiny minority of us still holding up God's flag.

I'll partially back the anon on this one. There's just I think it was 8% of Australians go to church in any given month, and 30% claim to be gadolig, and 30% Gangligan pl;us many others beside … means a lot of people are nominal.
>hurr-durr, it's all the protties
That it's a well-known meme that gadolig churches are overflowing on Easter Sunday and Christmas day/eve just highlights what everyone already knows. I'm not saying it's anything other than equally-shared, of course. There are / I know some pretty full-on gadoligs.
