Religions 100 years from now?

Question

How do you expect religions to become after one century? Islam,Christianity,Judaism, etc..

Will Muslims be able to establish their state of Khilafah that will unite all muslims?
Will Jews be able to build their third temple?
Will the church restore its power again?

Or it will be the other way around .. and religions will grow weaker and weaker until they die?

Answer 1

I expect that in 100 years, as knowledge is made more and more instantly available, Judaism will remain basically as it is. Islam will see a surge but people will eventually see that freedom is preferable to spiritual slavery, and while it will be bigger than it is, now, it will begin a fairly sharp decline. This will be the cause of an all-new Jihad as the extremists attempt to take out everyone else in Islam's death throes. Christianity will see a marked decline from its present position, but will still be around. It will lose its strangle-hold, and various Pagan religions will be in an upswing. Christian extremists will emulate their extremist Islamic cousins and begin terrorist attacks against Pagan temples that will be built.
Islam will, for a time, overtake the majority position in several European countries, but in its sharp decline, there will be civil wars in Europe between Muslims and European patriots throwing off the shackles of recently instituted Sharia governments.
America will have violence problems stemming from a large number of Muslims wanting to institute Sharia in parts of America as a prelude to wishing to institute Sharia nationally.

Overall... Various Pagan religions will continue an upswing as more and more people are better educated.

Answer 2

Religions arise in response to intolerable social institutions. They are preserved by relevance. In order for a religion to die out, it must no longer be effective for coping with the crises of life. Absolutely ineffective. That's a line that can be stretched a long way, because even the misguided perception of effectiveness counts.

The survival, transformation or replacement of existing religions will depend on what the next century brings us. If climate change or a true World War damages our ability to feed ourselves or protect ourselves from disease, weather extremes or pollution, some of our religions may no longer "work". Should a true artificial intelligence arise and escape our control, our very understanding of living on Earth may change. We really don't know what is to come and how we'll have to respond.

This past week, a Muslim astronaut had to grapple with the simple notions of how to properly pray in zero gravity, or observe the Ramadan fast in a station orbiting the Earth every 90 minutes. Should we establish permanent bases on the Moon and Mars, where "days" and "years", "air" and "gravity" become practical philosophical issues, ritual observances and ethical questions will have to undergo profound revision. It is possible that such discussions will damage many contemporary religious ideas. It is also likely that there will be new or renewed religions in a hundred years, as long as there are humans and mysteries.

Answer 3

All Muslims will kill each other fighting over the most asinine details of their religion and for revenge in centuries old feuds. Oh, and they will be as poor as they used to be because we will no longer burn oil.
Jews will still be Jews and still be around.
Christians will continue their centuries long trend of becoming ever more free to pick and choose and make of their religion whatever they want, less formal, less priests, less religion, more WWJD.
That's, 'What Would Jesus Do'.
