And Protestants don't practice the beliefs of Catholicism and orthodox Christianity and before that the practices of Judaism, as the earliest Christians were just an ultra orthodox Jewish sect. Religions change and die all the time just like other natural phenomena. Just because Christianity isn't dead yet doesn't mean it is true. The fastest growing religion is islam does that make it true?
It's never been a race, steady as she goes, many down through the ages have predicted the end of christianity but we are still here in all our imperfection, we are here by the hundreds of millions and going no where because we are the bride of Christ and have His undivided attention and protection.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
