The egyptians had their reign for a few hundred years. then, bam, a new pharoh came to town and said "no no, lets do it this way," and changed the whole notion. people followed. same thing with greek gods having their few hundred years. but, whoops, here comes the romans! now y'gotta change all the names.
modern christianity is simply massive, is the current "ruler" in much of the western world, partially due to technology permitting expansion and exploration for a few hundred years, where other cultures accepted (forcibly or otherwise) that same teaching, spreading across the globe.
Christianity has outlasted any major faith...due to it's basis in fact. We are not talking about a couple hundred years. We are talking thousands now.
If karma's a bitch, it will be my bitch!
