So because Christianity is shrinking that means it's not acceptable? It's still the #1 religion by a couple hundred million

How as the countries leading religion did it go from widely practiced to declining? That doesnt exectly make much sense. The religion didnt change it didnt just all of the sudden people went hey this stopped making sense especially after the centuries of it being practiced. So what other outliers are there? You think maybe society plays a part in that?

Because of logical fallacies in Christianity type arguments the best argument you've given is pure faith which nowadays isn't enough for most people especially if they don't feel the same things you do, America is becoming more scientific by the year due to advancements which tend to conflict with religious beliefs like one of the reasons why evolution is still a theory rather than a law is because of the amount of pushback christians gave when scientists tried to make it into a law, kids are growing up and realizing they don't have to believe what their parents believe especially in America where again we have freedom of religion which doesn't have to be Christianity, COVID killed off churches since even my pastor got really sick due to covid and had to cancel church for like a year until his daughter took over for him at a new location so for the already dying industry of religion that was a massive hit, and inflation probably isn't helping them rn either so there's tons of reasons for it declining

The coming generations have no use for Christianity any more. The young generation (teens and young adults) are less inclined to believe in heaven and hell, that scripture is the word of God, that satan is real, or that God even exists. They pray less, go to church less, and give less money to the church than the older generations. Many are abandoning Christianity all together. In fact, the “former Christians” combined with atheists and agnostics now comprise one of the largest religious groups in America, the religiously unaffiliated. And the largest percentage of them are young adults. Sadly, far too many children and teenagers are met with a shush and a “just have faith” instead of an answer when they ask a sincere question about Christianity. But God does not expect us to have blind faith. Moreover, He doesn’t want it. He does not ask us to merely follow because He said so end of story. He expects us and allows us to ask sincere and humble questions. For in asking genuine questions, one is seeking understanding. God wants us to love him with our mind. He wants true, sincere followers, not programmed machines. "Therefore, do not only teach them the word of God, but show it to them. Display it’s power in the way you live. Finally, along with knowing God’s word and seeing us use it, the next generation must understand God’s Word."- Deuteronomy 6:20

It is exactly what i was saying. I literally said there was a decline in christianity, albiet other contributing factors also took place but essentially there was a decline as opposed to other religions. He stated there is a decline overall due to younger generations not seeing a need for it. My overlying message matches up. You just simply couldnt understand cuz im bad at explaining. But if you review what i said instead of a bunch of "ignored video" and whatever else. You didnt even look into anything i said lol. At least secretagentboi reviewed it somewhat
secretagentboi
I mean if you had explained it like that i would've agreed but it seemed more like you were arguing for some conspiracy where Christianity specifically was being targeted
