Religion is falling at the rate, I don't know but I do know that now coming into the new aged world ALL religions are going to have to abandon there fight on teaching there methology as fact. For example: the 1st book of the bible 'Genisis' After reading it you discover that it sounds no differen't then norse/greek methology.
The churches/people who try to keep that will become the minority.

So you just don't beleive in them? You either accept it or you deny it, there are only two options, if you don't accept it then you deny it, and you need reasons for denying it(negative proof fallacies don't count). You're basing all your beliefs off empricism, a truely logical mind is a combination of an empricist-rationalist based mind, you seem to lack the rationalist based mind. You're a materialist, far from a rationalist. Also, a dragon in our realm is nothing close to God....

So you're telling me that it's completely logical to base all your beliefs off empricism (because all knowledge is based off belief and justification)? Knowledge is subjective, we can even rarely define knowledge most of the times (not germane to our discussion though). Let me give an example, so if you saw a man, and then he hid behind a wall while you looked somehwere else, the fact that he isn't there means he doesn't exist, because you can't see him? No evidence that he does.

"it doesn't really count as such because its true"
How, explain how a mythiccal creature compares to the Creator of the cosmos, that is an appeal to ridicule fallacy, and anyone with a logical brain can see it, you're just too recalcitrant to accept it.
Christianity's repuputation was hurt by the right wing Evangelicals at the end of the 20th century-- Fallwell, 700 Club, Bush et al. They were mendacious, greedy bullies. Morals and ethics can flourish without sects like that, and Christianity itself can exist without superstitious beliefs like the Resurrection, the Virgin Birth, or God as a Father/King. As people are exposed to more information, the formerly dominant religion loses influence. Take what's positive in all religions.

@luvdomus Why don't we just look for what's positive ourselves instead of taking it from religions? Like, if two scientists were arguing on whose evidence was more sound, and one's evidence was grounded in scientific evidence and the other's was taken from an astrology book, whose do you think is better? if you think the astrologist's evidence is better, that's cool, but realize that your standard of evidence is as low as a cave dwelling primitive.
