Will Christianity ever recover from them?

Christianity most serious attacks were 19th Century German liberal theologians and their accounts of the Bibles. Nietzsche and Darwin have pretty much zero to do with any damage on Christianity, except creationist museum variety.

Once again, faith will last so long as there are people that are willing and able to believe it.

The day American public schools put as much emphasis on Nietzsche as they do Darwin will be a cool day indeed

Christianity's decline in the west cannot be attributed to any single factor, not even the one you attribute. A combination of enlightenment era philosophy, revival of pagan thinking in the renaissance, the rise of political liberalism, and a general upswing of prosperity were all factors. Darwin completely overturning a literal interpretation of Genesis was definitely a factor, as was Nietzsche's brand of thinking becoming commonplace (/his/ posters like to overlook this because many of his ideas have become downright cliche, but his thinking caused quite a revolution in thought).

Nietzsche did not do very much harm, if any, to Christianity. The decay, nihilism and decadence that Nietzsche observed in Europe is what caused Christianity's decline, not Nietzsche himself.

Yes, it will recover if politics in Europe goes a certain way. Events will force people to embrace their traditional identities and Christianity is an essential element of that. I don't think that we will ever get back to Christianity being as widespread and important to people's lives as it used to be, but strident atheism will certainly decline.

Darwin actually achived something useful to the humanity

>implying that nietzsche produced anything even nearly as profoundly groundbreaking and meaningful as evolution theory

Already did. Look at the Bible Belt.

Faith will last as long as there are people. Every person has faith to some extent. Faith in mankind. Faith in nature. Faith in free will. This is why I don't believe that atheism truly exists.

Will atheists ever recover from them?

the better question is if christianity will ever regain followers from now weak societies

Those are proddies NOT Christians. They are heretical and refuse to believe in the one true church.

natural selection is the biggest commonly-known scientific conflict with abrahamic religion.

Islam already fills that vacuum, and at a much faster rate

It's already 500 hundred years too late

The acceptance of evolution had a huge role in the consolidation of naturalistic, atheistic tought among the intellectual elite. If you think the only Christians weakened by evolution are creationists living in the bible belt, you are profoundly mistaken.
