To be honest, I'm surprised the number isn't higher. I'm pretty sure a significant majority of British millennials are non-religious, but then again, America is known to be more religious anyway.
Thoughts and opinions?

If this trend continues, I'd hope for a mini break-resurgence of Christianity. Churches and biblical interpretations today are haywire, and are based not off the bible, but off of twisted word of mouth and whatever information said "Christian" learns from their parents and pastors. IMO, a religious or theology type course system should be implemented into public schools. They would have to fit specific qualifications and be as bias-free as possible, with rigorous instruction and education on important and prominent religious texts. Class discussions would perhaps be held over source material, but the instructor would be required to meet certain qualifications as to remain relatively impartial. I think people who believe and people who don't should know what they believe and what they don't.
