What killed christianity? The christians.
Start with the revivalism movement in the '20s, they introduced a wedge into their own ranks polarizing themselves with a growing battle developing between the batshit tin-pot wannabe dictators and the cucumber sandwich munchers.
Ultimately the religious groups are inherently anachronistic forever harking back to a fantasy past that never actually happened and locking themselves into a war with the society from which they are attempting to gather recruits.
In particular with the revivalists they promote a literalism which is at odds with observed reality. As time goes on society develops and the churchgoers have been left behind railing at the inequity of a society that simply doesn't hold their views to be true.
