Christianity is Dead, Long live the rEvolution!

[SteveII]

1. Does the evidence suggest Christianity "is dead". An emphatic no. There are more Christians (both as a % and in real numbers) than there ever were in the history of the world. Even funnier is that atheism is declining and expected to continue to decline. These are the facts 150 years (6 generations) AFTER Darwin. Kind of throws your whole premise out the window. 

'Decline' is a provocative word.  There are more atheists now than there have ever been.  It's just that Christians:

1. Out-breed us
2. Actively proselytize, especially in areas with poor education... it's no surprise that projections show that by 2050 ~40% of all Christians will be from sub-Saharan Africa

So, please, don't (yet again) paint it as though that atheism is somehow losing.  Or, like you always do, try to equate numbers with the veracity of the belief in question.  You're a broken record at this point, and no matter how often you repeat yourself, the idea is still fallacious.

The truth of Christianity was not the topic. In the context of this thread, the numerical and percentage gains and losses are very much relevant: the facts indicate clearly that Christianity is not only not "dead" but is making significant gains. 

The world's population is expected to grow 32% in the next 45 years--by 2.3 Billion. In the same period, unaffiliated (of which only part are atheists) are expect to grow 35 Million. That's like a rounding error.  If you adhere to the typical 150 year old atheist assumption/prediction that education and science will eradicate or cripple religion and then it does not, in the marketplace of ideas, who's worldview do you think is losing?

There are more and more religious people in the world every hour that passes. You are not getting your message out--you can't even keep up with the population growth!

You're really ignorant of that which you rail against. Augustine in the fourth century did not believe in a literal 6-day creation. Creationism is a relatively new side issue for Christians.  So, how does that fit into your premise? You have constructed a straw man and are beating it up. Congrats on that achievement.

What message would that be? Atheists do not have a message by definition.

The religious are a dying breed.

Why would anyone care whatever Augustine claimed, he was a primitive crank.

BBZ seems to have a message: Science has killed Christianity. LOL

No, religion is not dying. If you think that, your are ignorant of cold hard facts. 

Augustine (one of the first hardcore theologians) not believing in a literal 6-day creation 1700 years ago kind of undermines the whole OP, don't you think?
