I told Randy this before. What you believe in *may* not be in tune with reality.
People from way back then believed in something different. People in the future will believe in something yet more different (this sentence sounds weird...). Beliefs have evolved and are still evolving.
I understand and respect that these are your views.
However, I obviously do not think that Christianity will ever go extinct. Perhaps (and hopefully) we will gain a better understanding of it as time goes on, but I do not think the Earth will ever be around long enough that Christianity will be a thing of the past.
That would be an evolution. If it's still classified as christian, then it will remain. If some other name takes over, like "evangelical", or "trinitarian"... it will have evolved into a new beast.
