The lifespan of a scientific theory is the amount of time it remains the most accurate and useful theory with regard to its subject matter.
The lifespan of a religion is how long people spend pretending it is true. After that, it gets added to the pile of "obviously made up" older religions, many of which it bears a shocking resemblance to. Then a newer, trendier one comes in that "really is true this time, no really!"
