Who Are Not In Our Churches

According to the "All Melbourne Matters" research report, the following is a summary of the groups of people who are absent from the churches:

1. People in de facto relationships: (=1% of church attenders, 8% of adult population)


2. People who have never married (=19% of church attenders, 43% of adult population)


3. People without tertiary qualifications (=53% of attenders, 80% of adult population)


4. People in full-time employment (=27% of attenders, 37% of adult population)

Any idea why this is the case?
