It may fall, but it will never disappear - just as it has always come back.

I don't believe Christianity, or any religion, will ever fail. They will always be here and will always be popular. Just because we are learning more and more about the world around us doesn't mean we will ever know the answers to religious questions. You see, science does not disprove or prove anything with regard to religious beliefs because they are in two completely different spheres. Science merely shows some of the mechanisms of how God works. True, some of those mechanisms are contradictory to what's in the Bible (or other texts). But you have to understand that stories in these texts were handed down, often orally, over many generations, based on stories that seemed to make sense at the time (thousands of years ago). This doesn't mean God didn't still do it. It's not a big leap of faith at all to assume that God was still responsible for creating all of this and is still running the show. The Big Bang = "God created the heavens..." Evolution = God created the plants and animals.
As my father has said before, "The more I learn about the incredible complexity of physics, biology, and all sciences, the more I am convinced that God did this. There's no way this could have simply happened on it's own."
Oddly enough, I am atheist/agnostic. But I haven't ruled out any possibility. I'll see what happens when I die... it will be interesting!

It think you have your facts a bit backward. Christianity never fell or why would it be so strong now? It will never fall but will become ever stronger and more widespread as more are told of it and eventually will be the ones that are in Heaven. Whether you believe it or not, someday soon everyone will know it is truth.

No. Christianity is not a civilization...it's not something that can fall.
It is a relationshiop, a belief and our salvation.

As a Christian I am sad to see the state of christianity as of now. I am so sick of the hypocrisy, the hatred, the condemption, the fakeness, and all the other scandals and such inside of the church we keep repeating the same thing that the church has done in history and so we may fall again!

No, according to Bible Prophecy, Christians will be taken away- and it looks like soon.
Then G-d will raise the dead, and then he's going to spend somewhere between 3.5 and 7 years punishing evil people.
Don't believe me? Check out how the 3rd Temple in Jerusalem is now being planned for rebuilding- just like it was foretold 2000 years ago by Christ!

I suppose it's possible, but there are some kind of Christians pretty much everywhere in the world, so I don't think it will happen any time soon. Whether people who call themselves Christians are true Christians, is another matter.

I wasn't aware that Christianity "fell" during the Roman times. Unless history is totally mistaken, Christianity started and grew - in spite of persecution and execution - in Roman rimes to where it overthrew all the other religions of the Roman Empire, converting even the Emperor himself. Please explain what you mean by "fell" in Romans times?

No, and it didn't really fall in Roman times either. Christians became more secretive when they were being persecuted heavily, but they didn't stop being Christians.

That's when it got started. It's didn't 'fall' in Roman times. But lust like all other myth based belief systems, it will eventually go fade away or change drastically.
