Christianity has become at least as bitter and controlling as Islam has, supposedly. I have studied Christianity for twelve years. It teaches that you will go to hell if you are not a Christian, which is not true. Christians take the Bible to be 100% true, which it is not. Intelligent design anyone? Is Jesus the ONLY path to God (aka Allah, Yahweh, Vaheguru, etc.)? NO. Religions like Buddhism and Sikhism are so much more tolerant than Christianity is? They are open to new ideas. Christianity is based on a number of texts that were edited by imperfect men hundreds of years ago and that have undergone numerous translations. I do not see any room for accuracy there. Christians have become too stubborn and intolerant. They were once a minority and are now the majority. Remember: POWER CORRUPTS. No corrupt group stays in power that long. Either become more tolerant and accepting or be prepared to become a minority in the future.

actually, christianity is florishing outside the US. People outside of america are very dedicated to christianity. Africa has a huge growing population of Christians. There are so many that the muslims try and exterminate them because they feel threatened by a religion that has gone from a few people to outnumbering the islamists in only 10 years.
We in america just see things differently. I am christian, and I see everything I have as a gift. other people see me as an unfortunate person, but I say "Ive still got food, friends, and Im free, what else could I ask for?"
Let me put it this way: If you went to africa and when you arrived all the people had jobs and cars and food, you would be surprised, but right now, we expect tem to live in the dirt. We dont even think about how far ahead we are of the other 5,720,000,000 people on earth. We just dont appreciate what we have.

Christianity is the largest and fastest growing religion. However, This is from a worldwide perspective. In Europe, regular attendance at the mainstream churches is in decline, although numbers rise at Easter, Christmas and for Marriages, funerals and Baptisms. This suggests that there is still a social need to mark important times and events within a spiritual context. It's not that it's losing its hold; it's that it's evolving.
