Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: No

If you aren't going to debate here, can you spend your time elsewhere? I would like to debate with you, but that would require you to explain yourself, and what your argument is for YOUR side of the debate that YOU'RE supporting. There's a reason why this is called CreateDebate.

Nice grammatical errors. Note this is a debate forum, not a remedial class. As far as I know,the English language should urinate on you!
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: No

No, not this age. Currently less than 5-6% of the world are atheists, while I believe a study (though, I'm not sure if it's recent) says about 2M of the world are Christians, which is 2/7's of the Earth's current population. However, I do believe that as our knowledge of the universe and science increases, Christianity will lessen. Perhaps even all theist religions, for that matter.We can't really say for sure, though, as it is so immensely difficult to judge future events.
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: No

I've always thought a few thousand years down the line (if we make it that long) religions like Christianity and Hinduism and Islam will be regarded much the same way we regard the religions of the ancient Greeks or Egyptians; as silly, fairy-tale myths used by a primitive culture to explain a world they didn't understand. I think several thousand years down the line, again, if we make it, theistic, dogmatic, clergy-ruled religion as we know it will have ceased to exist. I just don't think humanity can stay this stupid forever.

"Hinduism, I believe was around the same time as the Greek and Egyptian civilizations anyway. Christianity arrived around the same time as the Roman Empire, but you didn't see Christianity die away when Rome did. Time is not the killing factor of religion."as silly, fairy-tale myths used by a primitive culture to explain a world they didn't understand."Primitive culture? Name anything about culture in the 1900's which is more "primitive" than that of today."I just don't think humanity can stay this stupid forever."You're right, the sooner they ditch the theory of evolution the quicker science can progress.

Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?

You're right, the sooner they ditch the theory of evolution the quicker science can progress.That's just idiotic. Scratch that, it's delusional. Evolution is supported and proved by science. You remove evolution, you also have to remove science.
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: Yes

You're right, that statement was completely unfair, biased, close-mind and "delusional", as was the comment it was disputing."You remove evolution, you also have to remove science."Science survived for millenia without evolution.
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: No

Science is constantly advancing and expanding, it's not religion that may not change, ever (dictated by its own rules). There are things we don't know right now but are real. If some day those were to be removed then all science should go with it. Why remove some parts that make sense and are proved real but not everything else?
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?

You keep comparing science and religion as if they're on the same level. Religion is not a science and science is not a religion. They are mutually exclusive but not opposites.

I'm not the delusional one here!That is a comparison you are comparing science and religion. I'm saying that they are not things you can compare because they are mutually exclusive.You said "as if on the same level". Religion is far below science.So what if they are mutually exclusive, you can still look at what they are like, you can still compare them.Only because you perceieve them as such.I perceive them as they are. But you clearly don't.Illogical is the opposite of logical, right? Reality is the opposite of fantasy, right? One has the freedom to change if necessary, the other may not change, you do get this?

"I don't understand what I say? Hello! I'm not the delusional one here!"Once again, you dodge the point of the argument with one of your petty insults. "You said "as if on the same level".

(I bet not all but most of them)If something is mutually exclusive that means they have nothing to do with one another, thus you cannot compare them.You can compare anything, but that is not wise in many occasions.If you do compare them it's to your own biased view of the world at which point you will always favour one or the other.???One or the other? It's reasonable that one shouldn't favor religion, because, well, it's nonsense. This is not biased view, it is based on reality."It is a fact that all Christians are stupid" - Nummi.I said that where exactly? Care to provide me a link?Yes you do need to get a grip on reality.Says the one who is religious (taking fantasy as reality...). Not to mention other issues.
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: No

I agree that evolution is key to our understanding of the origins of life on earth however it is NOT a proven fact, science merely supports it and as it stands it is still only a theory. Having said that, I really do think Darwin was on to something cause let's face it, its more realistic than believing in a man in the sky.
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: Yes

The fact that living organisms change across generations is proof of evolution (and there have been made lab experiments; a bacteria began using a substance it previously could not). So, yes, it is a proven fact.
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: Yes

Nothing in science is a proven fact. Karl Popper's theory of Scientific Falsifiability clearly shows that any scientific hypothesis, law, or theory, must be able to be proven false: if not, it is not science.So whatever mountain of proof we have for evolution (or any scientific law, even one as simple as gravity for example) it cannot ever be claimed to be truly proven, only claimed that is is extremely likely (the baseline for scientifically accepting something as 'fact' is that is must reach a sigma 5 probability of being incorrect: 1 in 5 million or more).
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: Yes

Yes, Popper's Falsification Principle declared that verification was an impossible goal (which Hume had already identified). Popper said that it is impossible to prove a hypothesis, so the only means of testing it out is to apply the criterion of falsification. Scientific laws cannot be verified but they can be falsified which shows that they can be tested empirically but even then, nothing can be a proven fact. Thus the theory of evolution is still only a THEORY.
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: Yes

Agreed. But my point was that despite the fact that 'it is not proven', it is irrational to go against those 1-in-5-million statistics and claim 'the sooner they ditch the theory of evolution the quicker science can progress', as Axemeister did, which you - indirectly - defended.

Go to YouTube and type in "An Archaeologist Defends the Bible," and watch the entire lecture. Patten cites peers against the Bible, and then sends them back to kindergarten.Today there are many versions of so-called "Christianity" that do not even teach the Bible, but teach instead, 'church doctrine.' These will indeed pass away. But mankind was created to have a spiritual nature, to look outside himself with appreciation and wonder at the power that made him and his surroundings, and to reach out to that power for more knowledge of it.The Bible is a truly amazing book. In the lecture cited above, a silver piece hundreds of years older than the Dead Sea Scrolls was found in a tomb, and quotes a Bible passage exactly as it reads today.This is one reason we can believe the Bible--it has been miraculously protected by its inspirer, and comes to us today, in any translation, as God's word for mankind--our 'owner's manual for life.Those who criticize it are not looking at the whole picture, or verses in context.The first century Christians knew the Bible writers and were so convinced of their authenticity that they were willing to undergo death along with their families, for its preservation. They were not superstitious, but taught to shun spiritism and superstition. They KNEW what they witnessed to be true. Today, we who believe the Bible rest upon the writings of these first century witnesses of God and Christ, and God's promise is that one day the true knowledge of Him will cover the entire earth. Even under great persecution, you cannot take that out of someone's heart. So no, Christianity in its true form will never pass away.

No. Take a look at Africa. The fastest growing christian region in the world. On top of that, Christianity is still the largest religion.

China's also getting a flair of Christianity (though I believe the government there is attempting to suppress it).
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: Yes

Islam is the fastest conversion religion.Missionary convert rate decreases 3% due to failures to convert. Missionaries are loosing areas to convert and religious organizations chosen its time to gain religious variety.Sure christianity is the largest religion but does that have to do in this scenario? If its so big then why hasn't everyone agreed to it?
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: No

I think the Christianity that is declining is the real one. As a whole is not. I think that we are living in the times described by Matthew 24. Where false teachers and prophets will come deceiving many. Jesus warned us about this. Unfortunately that is exactly what we are seeing now a days. "Christians" who don't pray, fast, or even read the Bible. "Pastors" who only care about the offerings and not the sheep's. Not all are like that but that is what modern Christianity is heading for.
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: No

no. even tho a lot of people are becoming atheist, Christianity is still the leading religion as of now. people become christain everyday, and people become atheist everyday, but christainanity will live on forever. ;)
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: Yes

The numbers clearly show declining christians and growing athiests. Basically the only growth for christianity is children who are born into it. No educated individual who is not part of it will become it after they reach the age of logic/reason which is about 13-14. Christianity will certainly not live forever. Its dying out. And for good reason. I bet the greek thought Zeus would live on forever too. Times change. Gods die.
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: No

Not really. Because if you go to a church, for the most part there are going to be ex gang members, alcoholic, prostitutes, drug dealers, adulters, homosexuals, unbelievers, and so on that needed a change in their lives, and found that change for the good threw Jesus Christ.
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: No

"The numbers clearly show declining christians and growing athiests"No they don't"No educated individual who is not part of it will become it after they reach the age of logic/reason which is about 13-14."Coincidently it's just when they hit puberty, what do you think they will want to do at that age? Follow a religion that frowns upon sex before marraige or ditch that religion for a theory that allows them to do whatever they want without any guilt on their conscience."Its dying out. And for good reason. I bet the greek thought Zeus would live on forever too. Times change. Gods die."That is one of the worst arguments possible for a debate like this. "The deities of civilizations such as Rome and Greece died out so Christianity must follow the same path", Christianity has already lasted a lot longer than both of those civilizations and, as showed in the source above, it is still growing.

On another note were playing two different games hear you see. You're playing the numbers game. Sheer amounts of people labled as christains. What playing is the belief game. Sure theres probably alot of people who call themselves christain who dont read the bible, go to church, or follow any of jesus's teachings. They just say theyre protestant, or baptist because thats what they were raised as. I called myself a protestant for a long time because thats what my family was. But during that time i never really believed in god, hated going to church 1 sunday a year (if that) and never read the bible. Ironically the bible is one of the things that lead me away from christainity. The amount of church going people is declining FACT. http://www.thankgodforevolution.com/node/2049  People call themselves christians, but the amount of people who are actively practicing the religion are few and far between. http://www.internetmonk.com/archive/the-aris-study-christianity-on-the-decline-in-america

At least get statistics from a nuetral website.And those "facts" only apply to the U.S.A, you cannot possibly make a statement that the amount of churchgoers around the world are declining.
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: Yes

Wow you are just spewing bullshit now. What I'm saying is that evidence is showing people are not really following the religion anymore and more and more people are becoming athiests. And you automatically assume that just cuz I don't believe in god that I'm an athiest. I'm actually Wiccan. And our most basic rule is "harm none". And no, people don't turn from god cuz then we can do whatever we want you ignorant fool. Do you even hear our arguments? YOU HAVE NO PROOF OF GOD. simple. Not historically, not physically, and sure as hell not physically. And also, people aren't free to kill and steal willy nilly after leaving god. Theyre called morals. We don't kill or steal because those are bad things to do and we know that. We dont do it cuz a skydaddy says so or for fear of hell. Its stupid to think that without a god people would be evil and corrupt beings who murder and attack others. No. That's what's wrong with the religion. It suggests were all worthless sinners pathetic and evil in the eyes of god and without him we'd be horrible and helpless. That's not true. We don't need to be taught right and wrong. We are born with it. Basically I didn't leave god because I hated church and wanted a carefree fun life. It's because I grew up and threw away stupid blind beliefs in things I couldnt see or feel. And before you say "oh well you're still wiccan" I don't believe in the deities I just practice it. It's based on manipulating bioelecricity so there's your evidence for it's truth. I didn't read the bible during my time as a "protestant" I did read it when researching why the religion is fake so that I could understand biblical references and not be a hypocrite when arguing about the bible. It's evil and absurd and I shouldnt even have to explain why.www.evilbible.comSkeptics annotated bible.And how is it biased? It's a non fiction article and those are real numbers. And the USA is really all I care about. In fact alot of counties have even more nonbelievers than us. And places like middle east will always be followers because they're killed if they're not. And I don't really care about them.
Debate: Is the age of Christianity slowly passing away?
Side: Yes

Wow you cited Wikipedia! This only proves my point that whatever research you did wasnt sufficient if wikipedia is your go to source. The only reason christianity still rises is because they have higher birth rates than athiests or agnostics. I was refering to conversion rate which i apologize for not clairifying. Athiests are growing due to higher conversion rates. People are converting WAY more to athiesm than christianity which is the only rate that matters because it involves thought. It has nothing to do with bodily desires. At that age a childs mind starts to seek answers. They begin to ask questions. Questions that christianity just cant answer. So unless that questioning nature is systematically repressed by christian teachings of hellfire then they will most likely leave the religion. The deities of Greece and Rome died because the countries died. I dont see the USA being destroyed anytime soon, nor Israel, or Mexico or any other mainly judeo/christian country. Thats why its lasted longer. However, without a doubt, christianity will die out. Theres too many loopholes, contradictions, questions, and absurdities related with the religion that as people get smarter, it just doesnt make sense. People are being born into it, it doesnt mean they believe it.
