Athena_Ritashe Christianity takes on a lot of features of Zorastrianism, especially its sense of duality. In Zoroastrianism God is called Ahura Mazda, and Satan is called Angra Mainyu. One is by nature goodness, the other is evil and both are divine. The only way for Christianity to avoid the admission that God commits evil acts as well as good is to give Satan a great degree of power, power that challenges God. Either God has an evil streak, or he's not as powerful as he claims. So I don't know if it is polytheistic, depends on your Christian. If they are praying to angels and saints, definitely. If they blame Satan for all the evil of the world, they are too. If they believe that God is responsible for evil then they could be monotheistic.
True, it does depend on the Christian, and just like the video this claim should only go out to the parts of Christianity that go along with the argument made for it being polytheism. The video also points this out, perhaps I should change some of my starting words so it doesn't include all of Christianity.
(Also, thanks for responding I thought this topic was dead and nobody was interested. )
