Which major religion will die first?

[FrustratedFool]

Of the major world faiths, which is most likely to die first, and which is likely to hold on the longest?

[no one]

As long as hoomans are gullible fools, religion and its absurd lunacy will continue to ensnare them.

Catholicism, because it's not susceptible to adapting like Protestantism.  The child sex abuse stuff is shredding it from within, but so is Trumpism and greed.

Islam will be last to go because they haven't even had their Reformation yet.  They're still in the rack and thumbscrew days.

I'll be happy if they simply dwindle into cult status.

I think they should be preserved as Disney franchises, or maybe factions in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

That would make Disney and Marvel Cinematic Universe rated R, or X.

The death of one maggot out a writhing mass that feasts on the corruption of human ignorance and wishthinking is unlikely have significant long term effects on general landscape of decomposition.  It will just make room for other maggots to gorge themselves more and reproduce faster.

I would say mormonism is crashing pretty fast. Apparently, the point of origin, which is Utah, their numbers went below 50% in 2023 according to one source.
The internet has damaged mormonism quite a bit.
We would also have to look at the sect level. The smaller you are, the more likely it is that your religion will disappear.

If we look at it geographically, the USA, Canada and similar european style countries are moving to atheism pretty fast.
Science and general education is a religion killer.

Geography:
The south american countries and Mexico are not advancing much so christianity and mormonism is likely to last there a long time.
I guess these guys don’t have big labs, no large accelerators, no space program.
Ditto for the sub saharan African states. Maybe, South Africa would be an exception?

Geography:
For Islam, they seem to have more access to education in some parts but the population is still glued to Islam for some reason.
Just recently, a muslim told me that scientists have discovered the soul and there is evidence. Also, they can make a cell but they can’t make it work since it is missing the secret juice = soul.
I asked him to name me the scientists, tell me about the experiment. He went into silent mode.
Another muslim I was talking to showed strong evidence of retardation.

A couple of muslims were asking the same old question: the universe had a beginning and can something come from nothing?
I told one of them that the Big Bang theory doesn’t state that the universe came from nothing. After a bit of resistance, he seemed to have accepted it.

So, maybe the stupidity or retardation is very high in muslim countries.
(Note: You become a retard if you are too lazy to look up information for yourself. If you do not look at some serious science articles or wikipedia or any proper source.)
