In recent history, it's been monotheism that has replaced polytheism. Knowing a few Hindu people, I wonder how long it will last as a faith instead of a few ancient cultural rituals. It seems as if it has a Greco-Roman feel of antiquity to it, at least to first and second generation immigrants.

I suspect you're right, at least for those Hindus who now live in this country, where there is not a large Hindu population. However, I see no sign of decline in Hinduism where it is the dominant religion.
