Don’t be so certain about most people waking up. There are large pockets of less mainstream Christianity popping up everywhere. A huge percentage of immigrants are indoctrinated religious of all types. There’s also a vocal minority of footy players and boxers who are converted Muslims for example.
It’s tricky . Religion , mainly Christianity is the reason society has all the order and function it does , as most values due to colonialism have some root in it , because of the pilgrimages and as I said colonialism.
So yes we do live in generally speaking the safest time in human history . But that’s not to say it hasn’t reached it’s used by date. The problem is many have replaced it with capitalism , and that shit is the devil .
So others have seen this even if they couldn’t put thier finger on it , and called it the degradation of society or whatever ,and gone further into religion .
Then Islam offers an alternative especially for darker skinned folk who didn’t fit into what colonialism, and remnants of that including naziism , So they find peace in that .
For me , I feel like inner peace seems like the answer . Yet I am completely incapable of it . Like most I would assume .
For me I don’t care if 2 dudes share a bed together and love each other . But I still whince when I see them kiss . And I have no idea why. When I really think about it . Is it my own toxic masculinity ? Is it a facade or a front I have to put on because society says so ? Is it because the Christian god says it’s wrong , and that shit was drummed into me as a kid , so I’m like an escaped cultist trying to ooze out of the brainwashing ? Or are they right , and it is wrong ? I have no idea. But I do know that if 2 random people I’ll never meet can have to her whole existence turned to shit because I can’t deal with my whince . Well then yea , probably that whince is not right .
But hey what do I know … go tigers lol
