Christianity Declining

[ALPHAGRIZ1]

Not surprised by this poll. It just confirms a trend that's been going on for years.

Agreed, Christians are beaten beheaded and ostracized to the point that they lie to pollsters.

[SuperHornet]

To be accurate, Christianity is declining in Europe and MIGHT be declining in the US (at least in certain areas), but worldwide, it is booming, particularly in South America....

BS - South America has always been heavily religious. Unless you are claiming that Catholics are not Christian.

By no means. There are more than just Catholic Christians in South America. Pentecostal Christianity is going like gangbusters, and they're not just "stealing" Catholics, either. South America still has primitive religions going on, too, like in the Caribbean and in Africa....

And also related to the fact that if an American deigns to identify oneself as "religious" or "christian" you're immediately mocked, attacked, and bullied...so who in their right mind would want to subject themselves to THAT treatment? Easier to just answer "agnostic" and move on. Unless you're mulsim....then you're coddled and cowtowed to because that's politically expedient.

LOL - oh yes, you poor, persecuted Christians...

You are so full of shit Z on this one. The opposite is still true.

Nope. 100 % spot on on this one. You're in massive denial and you know it...

Has this been your experience?

Examples? Read ANY religion thread on this board. The insults, mocking, bullying is over the top. And it's not just here. On just about ANY social media platform it's open season on Christians. Watch the news. Read about what's going on in the ME with Christians. Singled out and beheaded. Shot. Eviscerated. Burned alive. Seriously, you take your life in your hands in about 80% of the world identifying as Christian.

Jeezus...

You said "American". You also might want to get new social media friends. The pro Christian comments on my feeds out number the negatives by about 20-1 (and you know who the one is).

I can't think of a single positive or defense of Islam post either.


This message board ain't exactly the real world and is much more anonymous than social media.

American Christian persecution...

Seriously? I don't need different "social media friends". That shit is force upon me by places like this and "recommended posts" on FB, Twitter, etc. Not to mention the BS you hear in the news.

And if You're WHITE, Christian, male and over 40 and not part of the Ivy League elite you're essentially fucked beyond belief.

Yes…we're all fucked! And this shit is "forced on us"! Maybe you should chose your searches more wisely you closet donk you!

And have we forgotten that a pastor from Boise has been in the worst jail in Iran for the last two years being tortured just about every day, and the current administration hasn't done much of anything about it?

[JoltinJoe]

Cool.

More room in heaven for me.

[Grizalltheway]

When's the last time you even set foot in a church, Z?

[93henfan]

A lot of folks act as if they follow a religion largely to avoid annoying confrontations over "belief" from other people, more so friends, and even more so family members. It's a real hassle having a swacked out Jesus freak in your face, argument is fruitless, and you do not want to win, you just want to get away.

Boom; spot on. I even have my kids going to church and playing wise men and sheep and shit because I want them to fit in. It's kind of crazy.

At the end of the day, I just don't know what happens when we die. I just try to be decent to other people and have a semiautomatic weapon close by in case shit just doesn't work out.

Sage advice.








Oreguno, too.

[Chizzang]

This is a very funny example of Christianity in America today
it shows both sides: below link
The humiliation from non christian's
and the co-opting of the right of anybody who admits to be Christian
"You call him the Pope, I call him my Wing Man" Hilarious

True. We are slowly becoming Europe.

[SeattleGriz]

Can't wait for D1B to come out of his blackout and find this thread in three hours.

I can't hold a candle to D, but I have now found it AND have been drinking. Give me a couple hours to get really spooled up!

No, he is right. Europe and N America are both declining. It is S America where Christianity is very strong and growing. So much so, that it dwarfs Atheism and the minuscule growth it has observed.

Nobody puts SeattleGriz in a corner.

[SeattleGriz]

Pussies.

[93henfan]

Faggot!

[SeattleGriz]

Faggot!

Oh, it's now ON!

You all can thank 93 for starting this bullshit!

[SeattleGriz]

So, what are we going to do when Christianity actually declines and human value follows?

Are we going to accept the Darwinian response and say, "fuck em", you should have been more fit?

Without Christianity, half you pussies would have been killed for being inferior. Just saying.

God created men.

Yes, but what is to say you don't shoot a woman because they are not as "fit" as you? That is where we are headed if Christianity is replaced. Look at how Europe started with the old farts.

Hmm, the godless Nordic countries seem to be doing okay. Like, it was actually a big deal when some dude went on a shooting spree, not just a weekly occurrence.
