Why Does Christianity Persist?

Dear Internet Diary,


Christianity persists because we are afraid of authority figures.
Christianity persists because atheists will rush back to church when they have babies.
Christianity persists because we protect untrue pronouncements from ridicule.
Christianity persists because we still think that it's better to make people comfortable than respect them with the truth.
Christianity persists because we are afraid to take responsibility for ourselves and our moral judgement.
Christianity persists because we insist on believing the truth is relative.
Christianity persists because we still believe that majority opinion is truth.
Christianity will persist because atheists still insist that morals and values are based on belief.
Christianity persists because we place God-belief in a category seperate from belief in every single other belief anyone has ever held.
Christianity persists because we "special plead" morality and values away from our demand for facts in the rest of our lives.

Christianity has more than Christians to keep it alive. It has us.
