@theFlow The whole thing about the new religion is fearmongering for the Abrahamic religions. There is something that is supplanting traditional religion though I haven't determined what it is because nothing /exactly/ fits to my eye. People today don't "worship" anything in the same way they did with traditional religions, and it's not the same as they did with ancient religions. Life doesn't revert, it evolves, and things may be similar, but they aren't the same.

@DoubleD @theFlow

Not true, plenty of people never stopped worshipping in the same way they always did.

The thing that's evolved are the questions being asked.

The New Atheists used to ask "Does God Exist?" New Atheism has failed & most people have understood that religion is intrinsic. People will always worship something.

Entities like the WEF have fullly accepted this & rather than be offended by it are actively finding out how to co-opt & own this impulse for the purpose of control.

For individuals, the evolved questions go "If that's true, which transcendental belief is the best? how do we ground morality, in which God, which belief?"

Others are trying to create new religions as we speak.

Two such examples: Vervaeke's Neo-Platonist "Religion of Tomorrow" and Harari's gnostic "Dataism".

The latter is truly horrific but popular among tech bros.

@UncleIroh @theFlow I think my issue was with the definition of worship. Does everyone have a cosmology which they leverage to answer the great questions of life? Absolutely.

People still seem to be stuck on this idea that there exists a single prescriptive morality for everyone though I cannot blame them wholly for believing so. It's easy for the common man to think that if something is good for him, it is good for all men.
