“Britain also experienced periodic Christian revivals led by evangelists such as John Wesley, founder of Methodism, William Booth, founder of the Salvation Army and Rodney “Gypsy” Smith.”

And John Knox, as well. But of course.

” Besides recharging Christianity’s batteries, these revivals may have contributed to limiting the appeal of Jacobinism, Bolshevism, and other pernicious ideologies among the British.”

I have no doubt. The message of personal accountability found in Christianity is anti-thetical to a number of vile ideologises that you mentioned. The Churches I attended in California were often filled with Chinese immigrants who had fled the communist control of China, and Christianity remains a serious threat to the power structure of ChiComs. Time will tell....

In some estimates, there might be more Christians in China by the end of the century than there will be in the U.S.
