Not in our lifetime, maybe in a few hundred years. Eventually everyone becomes civilized.

No. I'm not sure where you got your idea that the age of Moses ended... There are still thousands... if not millions of Jews... who still believe in Moses and what he stood for...and the same goes for Jesus. And Christians being nearly extinct in Great Britain... wow... that seems really unlikely. Although you may not know of any... its more likely the people you hang around with aren't therefore you assume there are none. Think of it as when you're interested in buying a new car... you never notice how many of that particular car there truly are until you started wanting one for yourself...now all you see is that type of car.
As far as second-hand tales and myths... I don't know what Christians you know but there is nothing second hand about what I believe and know... Christ is the only LIVING "god"... all of the other religions worship dead men or gods... I can tell you I have a real, genuine relationship with my God... and I PROMISE you if you ask... truly ask Him to prove Himself to you.... He will. Usually, unfortunately, it is those who say we need to be "open minded" about things are the most closed off people there are... simply because they don't live in the FREEDOM of Jesus and must justify their closed mindedness by being judgemental and critical of Christians. (Which is what most people accuse Christians of)
"Religion" is simply what you believe and therefore how you act... so technically, your astrology is just as much of a religion as Christianity... the difference is you worship the stars... whereas I worship the one who created those stars.

We're already seeing it. People turning against God, mocking that there is no God and so forth. That's not a good idea at all, but what do they know? Besides, Christianity is not a religion. You should really understand the difference. Anyway, Christians know that we are in the last days, and it's questions like these that is living proof. We were already told that these are the things we will see before He comes, so questions like these are no shock to me. The fact that we know that people are attacking Christianity, we smile because we know He's coming back for his people and while we're down here we are protected and covered with his blood. Before something like that is even allowed to happen fully, we will all be caught up in the rapture while chaos will go on down here. You cannot put fear in Christians for we already know the word, works and what is of this world and what is coming. Sin only lasts for a season. He who turns his back on God will feel his wrath, and believers as well as nonbelievers will face Him in judgment. Every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus is Lord, and that's including you

Not in my lifetime. Most religions take periods of thousands of years to change and morph into something altogether new.
And they usually go the way that societies go. In the ancient times, even through the Middle Ages, there were bascially only two ways new religions spread and old ones died out. When one type of society crumbled, another took it over, usually in a series of battles. The new ruler either allowed his people to absorb the religion of the conquored or he mandated that his religion be practiced everywhere. Sometimes under severe penalties. Once in a while, the new religion was a combination of old and new. But religion itself never went away.
The same is mostly true today only in reverse. Instead of the dominant, wealthy, industrialized countries leading the way in religions, they are slowly beginning to use the scientific method to understand their surroundings. It is the poor, underdeveloped countries who still cling fast to the old religions.
I know that a lot of religious people are going to read this and give me the thumbs down, but I haven't written anything that isn't true and 100% verifiable.

It is possible, and the trend does seem that parts of the world are becoming more secular. Though I think in developing countries religion will still have a foot hold for much longer. I also find it interesting that you are using astrology as a way to show a time line for a possible end to Christianity.

No.
71% of people in Britain call themselves Christian. Church attendance figures say otherwise, but Christianity won't be going in any of our lifetimes.
And you do realise that astrology has been proven to be absolute nonsense, right? A bit rich for you to be talking about 'ancient second-hand tales and myths'.

Not unless I live a fantastically long time, like they do in fiction books...
Best I'll hope for it that it'll be relegated to a minor cult among crazy Americans while the rest of the Christian world realizes that most of it is nonsense and the bit about being nice people is easy enough without having to believe that someone was born to a virgin.
But actually, that's not likely. So no. But eventually, it's doomed.

I do not think Christians in GB are anywhere near extinct but they are under a sort of siege. I hope Christianity does not become extinct because it (in spite of some awful things done in the name of Christ) at worst a restraining influence and at best an inspiration

Christianity & astrology are not in any way related. In fact in the Bible we are warned to stay away from those practicing divination.
What else is astrology but another way to figure out your future ie: divination?

Who told you that Moses is out of the picture????? He was and still is one of the most beloved prophets, especially for Judaism. And, for Jesus, I doubt that he will ever disappear from all human being minds. Unless, of course, humanity becomes extinct, then it will be a different story.
