Secularism and religion
…The Axial Age
Secularists are confusing the passing of Axial religions with the end of religion. I hope the modern world is the end of bad religion! But the issue of religion is destined to thrive in the modern world as long as they are not cults, but simply point to the potential of man in his real evolution. In fact secular culture doesn’t need new religions so much as their essence: the humand development of self-consciousness.
