Sure they'll go away. Try always answering the door in the nude like I do when they knock. They go away pretty darn fast, then!
The names of religions might stick around for a while. I'm sure if you were to compare modern-day religions with ancient religions, I suspect people will be shocked how much changes to where I'll be nothing or little like the original.
I voted for those wo (according to what I know of them) possess the ability and will to change and adapt with our growing knowledge of reality.
Hinduism
Buddhism
Jainism
Zoroastrianism

There are other new religious and thought movements that are minor, and it remains to be seen if they will survive or not.
Given the tendency of humans to wipe out or assimilate other ideologies- do you recognize how against the odds it actually is that your worldview has survived until today? There is something about the thought movements and religions mentioned that would seem to set them apart from others- whatever that might mean.
Do you realize that your ideology/worldview surviving into the future, in part depends on your zeal for it, and willingness to stand by it?
This is very interesting- is it not? What are the odds that a religion survives for even 2000 years? Much less millennia?
We could argue about the political factors that might have played in favor for these religions, but having looked at all of them- I must admit they all contain rather fascinating insights and interesting ideas for consideration. I don't think it is merely due to politics they have survived. They all seem rather concerned with the human condition and it's problems.
What do you say?
You didn't mention Jehovah Witness'. I don't think they'll ever go away.

What do you say?
I say the ones that have lasted the longest so far are the most likely to survive, with an additional increase in atheism.What do you say?
Yeah, but will it last 1000 years?Islam, statistically will be the dominant religion in the future

As far as I can tell there have always been nonbelievers. So I feel free to hypothesize that they're part of human nature and will always be around.Hinduism

The poll only deals with the human interpretation of events, and doesn't include what global prophecy has predicted.What do you say?
The Holy Fire shall wash earth soon, and then only those who follow 0neness from among those religions, shall remain.
Within Hindu texts there is a concept called Mahapralaya (dissolution or washing of reality with the Holy Fire, as everything goes back to being Brahman), and that Kalki comes on a white horse to fight, and remove by force the Adharmic behavior/religions before the coming of Satya Yuga (Age of Godliness)...I'm guessing it's you saying stuff like this that results in people telling you that you are not a Hindu, but a Christian.
