I sense there will be revival; not Scoobynet, and not in my lifetime, but within the next century the cognitive elite will evolve toward Christ. I see it happening. Quietly and without fanfare. The new atheist may mock and the profane may imitate them and pour scorn on visionary Christians, but the latter will be, slowly, steadily and surely, resurgent.

I bought my Impreza a few years before I joined Scoobynet and I wasted a lot of money on mods or fixes that didn’t work. After joining I learned a great deal. Loads of people with a wealth of knowledge and experience. I learned a lot! I remember posts of how can I get 300bhp, 400bhp and people getting actual, real, proven advice, not ridiculed.
Those days have changed and so has the forum. No longer do we have the regular helpful people that are happy the share advice and experiences. It seems to be more common to take the **** out of someone.
My Impreza will never be for sale as I spent far too much on it. I’d love to push over 500 on standard position turbo but is this the place to ask for advice? At the moment, I think not. If only it was as was.

Any evidence to support this? It seems highly unlikely to me. As science progresses religion regresses.

You did when you mentioned Christians. Or has Christianity ceased to be a religion now? I suspect you have no sensible response so cover up by answering with another question. This batting back and forth with non answers sounds Pythonesque and makes your original statement rather pointless.
You have espoused the certain resurgence of 'visionary Christians' in the future and once again I'm asking you; what evidence do you have and what leads you to believe this?

Borrowed from Tim Keller:
Religion (salvation by works) v. Gospel (salvation by grace)
[Acceptance]
“I obey - therefore I’m accepted”
“I’m accepted – therefore I obey”
[Motivation]
Motivation is based on fear and insecurity.
Motivation based on grateful joy.
[Obedience]
I obey God in order to get things from God.
I obey God to get God – to delight and resemble him.
