Christianity is so widely open to interpretation now that it has become meaningless. If the words of the Bible can be flexible to suit any situation, doesn't that make the concept of the Christian god too obscure to survive this century?
I, for one, hope so.

Watch what you hope for. Nothing ever disappears without something else coming in to take its place. Hope for something positive, not just the absence of something negative.

One cannot enterpret Gods word. God is perfect and his word is for those who understand it. Let the bible speak.
Psa 119:130 The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.
What you know as christianity is not. What the world knows as christianity is not. The people that the world know as Jews are not.
You do not understand that your every human that has ever lived and died, there life is on the line. As long as you breath there is still hope. Once that stops and you have not known God, there is no hope.
Rev 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
He deceives the hole world, he knows where he is going in a time to come and he will take many with him. The bible makes a whole lot of since all you have to do is read it.

The Christian God will survive,despite the fact that His word is open to interpretation as is any religio or non-religio concept or thought. Truth is Truth and is timeless.
It surely must amuse the Creator, when the created mocks,questions and accuses with such inconsequential ramblings.

Mostly because of the Christian's (not specific people, the churches and doctrine) refusal to accept science and reconcile their faith with it, people cannot accept the silliness anymore. Most people who are devoutly Christian are either completely uneducated or have decided that evolution and creation are not mutually exclusive and that stem-cell research might have some value etc. Like all things living, the Church (in general, don't email me) has not evolved and without the adaptation is dying. Soon to be extinct like the dinosaur, Christianity needs to get it together or wave "bye-bye".

Christianity ended a long time ago. What you see now are the remnants. You may have one or two people out of twenty who are actual Christians - no matter what the profess, but the age of love and good works is gone ( if it was ever there at all).

The creation of the bible is finally being made known. The catholic priests can't keep their secrets for much longer. Pretty soon they all will be in jail for hurting children, and we'll have access to their vaults, and find out the real truth. Christianity is a scam.

The creation story I have heard from the leading Atheists is so strange that if it wasn't given the power of school brainwashing it would be rejected as incredulous by any thinking person. A mass explosion sends inorganic matter out into the darkness of empty space. A mass of this material spinning around in an arm of a larger mass becomes our solar system. A congealed mass of matter becomes our earth and element combine to form a hospitable place for for lightening to ignite life in a puddle of chemical laden water in a ammonia filled atmosphere. And watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat.... Jim

We can only hope so. What you say is absolutely true. We must end the age of christianity and superstition and promote a new age of reality based enlightenment if our planet is to have any promise for the future.

I really hope so, then finally we may be able to move forward as a species and accomplish something meaningful, instead of waging religious wars all day long.

In actuality, probably. The actual morals and lessons of the bible are so widely ignored in the Christian community that it's ridiculous.
In name, however, I doubt it. Even if actual Christianity is dead, "Christianity" will continue on due mostly to tradition.
