It was tempting to pick the fourth options just for the heck of it.
But overall I agree, Christianity at the very least has changed quite a bit. I don't think I need to go into to much detail to get my point across, considering just how many forms of Christianity has split off, each having their own interpretations and ideals. That in itself shows just how much has differed since Christianity's first inception(s).
And on the science integration, might I point out that at one time the Catholic church threatened certain scientists on charges of blasphemy because they had the idea that the Earth was NOT the center of the universe. And of course it doesn't mention anywhere in the Bible that Earth is the center of anything really on the cosmic scale, but the Church had the audacity to claim it as truth.
Later, the church accepted it and then came up with some cop-out as to why it made sense, as the scientists were quite persistent in showing them the evidence they had collected.
