It has been a pendulum historically speaking, but people that use this argument usually forget just how bloody bad it gets before the pendulum starts swinging back.
And there is nothing that enforces the swings... It's entirely possible for it to stop swinging for hundreds of years, as that's been the case historically as well.
It's usually pointless to argue with religious people though. They have their opinions and there is little you can achieve with logic.

Every religion or non-religion is based on belief. Even if you are not religious, you have some fundamental beliefs that require some sort of assumption. Logic and religion are not incompatible.
