I would hope at least that religion will come to accept the findings of modern science.

No i dont think so. I think belief in religions and God will always be there. There all types of people in this world and there will be many who will continue to believe. Like muslims use the modern science in support of islam, I dont think that muslims are going to have much of trouble with religion in the future.

Nope. Some people accept science AND religion. I do. Telling me how the gods do it doesn't take away from the magic of it for me.
Religion is what people seek out to give them hope, something to hold on to when there is nothing else. Human's will always have faith in some sort of god.

The belief in religions and gods has always been throughout history, and will continue to be. There will be some who don't believe in any religion or god, and there will be some who do, but I can't imagine it would ever vanish completely.
And true scientific evidence actually backs up what is written in the Bible. Theories, such as evolution, are not proven-- they are just that-- theories. It takes faith either way.

I've always found it interesting that humans started the belief in a higher power to begin with. And it crosses all cultures; the gods may take different shapes, but the basic belief is still there.
No matter how scientifically advanced we get, people will retain their spiritual beliefs.

I don't think advanced science will have any effect on religion because there will always be humans who need supernatural explanations for issues or events they can't understand and those who feel more comfortable living a superstitious life.

This question gets asked a lot, and I always refer people to "The House of Eld," by Robert Louis Stevenson.

The upshot is that there will always be people who are born slaves, who wouldn't know what to do with freedom if it was offered them - if you strike off their fetters, they simply slip into another set.
P.S. - It does NOT take religious "faith" to "believe" in science, any more than you can demonstrate God in a lab. When "religious" people make this claim, they're simply exhibiting their own ignorance.

Science is as much of a religion as Christianity and other similar religions. The only difference is that more Christians are willing to admit that they are going off of faith and not "evidence"

I don't know.
I think there will always be people who look for that type of out...who need there to be someone "out there" taking care of things because life is complicated.
I don't know if that will necessarily = religion, but it's certainly the right formula for it.

Religion will become such a marginal practice in the near future so as to make it practically dead. I give it another 30-50 years. Maybe a little bit longer in the US.
