Abstract

The predictions of the main naturalist theorists have been nothing favorable to Christianity, all agree that as science increases, religion - emphasizing Christianity - will decrease until it disappears.
Contrary to this argument, during the twentieth century an accelerated growth of Christianity was unleashed, and this growth has been on the Pentecost line.
Latin America is the geographical area where Pentecostalism has had the most impact, this paper shows a summary of the contributions it has left to Christianity and society in Latin America.
