But women priests will keep it so relevant

Church of England attendance falls for fifth year in row | World news | guardian.co.uk

As reported above:
The average weekly attendance in 2008 fell to 1.145 million from 1.16 million in 2007, while the average Sunday attendance fell from 978,000 in 2007 to 960,000 in 2008.
This is despite attempts to be relevant such as:
...allowing children to be baptised at the same time as their parents' marriage.
It would be a fair bet that the parents who lived together, had kids and then decided to get the all-in-one special of marriage and baptism will next only next be a church for a funeral.
