6:23Now PlayingThe Catholic Church in Poland is grappling with a significant decline in its following, as recent census data reveals a drop from 88% to 71.3% in Catholic affiliation between 2011 and 2021. The percentage of "Nones" nearly tripled from 2.4% to 6.9% in the same period, and the number of people refusing to answer questions about religion surged from 7.1% to 20.5%. This decline is particularly evident among younger Poles, with only 16% of those under 40 considering religion very important, compared to 40% of older individuals. The number of Poles attending Sunday Mass has also plummeted from 47% at the turn of the millennium to 28% today. This waning influence is exacerbated by the Church's alignment with Poland's conservative Law and Justice party, particularly on divisive issues like a near-total abortion ban and anti-LGBTQ+ stances. As the Church faces a crisis of credibility and relevance, it confronts a younger generation increasingly disenchanted with its role in both spiritual and public spheres.
