How come most of what humanity creates eventually decays, except for religion? There are several religions like Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Confucianism, Zoroastrianism, etc, which have all survived against challenges for thousands of years.

What is the future of religion? Will these same religions that I listed still exist 1000 years from now?

Only Catholicism will exist a 1000 years from now

>>2730644
Thousands of other religions have died off.

They are too broadly defined to go away.

Religion isn't immune to decay even by religious standards. Just look at Christian and Muslim eschatology and how pessimistic it is about the end times, or the Buddhist sutras on the extinction of the dharma. Nothing lasts forever.
Also, you're conflating physical entropy with the cultural discarding of ideas. That's not the way it works, broski. Manichaeism used to be popular as fuck... where is it today? Pretty much extinct.

I doubt it. Even if it does still exist, it'll probably be unrecognizable and have adopted ex cathedra statements on Plant Rights or Martian Nationalism or whatever the fuck else becomes fashionable in 1000 years.

Gee, I wonder...

Do you even know what that is

Because ideas are bulletproof.

Religion is decaying, though. Slowly but surely.

But that image is wrong though. The romans didn't seriously start persecuting the christians until the 3rd century and they might have been successful if it weren't for constantine. Napoleon never wanted to destroy christendom, or any other faith for that matter, neither did germany and the only group this is accurate for is the muslim terrorists but they are going to be destroyed by the military forces of various national governments.

That isn't even getting into the stupidity of the last panel, but here's a hint: The Japanese Empire wasn't destroyed by christendom, it was destroyed by the secular military of a secular state.
