What’s going on with Christianity? More specifically, what is going on with the major traditional sects of Christianity and why is it that they are visibly dying? Why is it that this religion of two millennia, the major sects which count billions as their members, the religion which seemed to survive everything, seems to be faltering?
Is it because of the scandals? Is it because people have suddenly become less religious as technology and science advance? Some of those points ring true, but I do not think that they fully answer why the religion and the major sects especially are seeing stagnation and even decline.
A major reason why the religion and the major sects are dying is because (and I say this as an avowed atheist) the religion is no longer a lifestyle. That may sound odd or even very simplistic, but I think it holds more than a grain of truth when really looked at…
