There is none, men have lost their longing and creativity.
Nietzsche forsaw it, he was the strongest of those who challenged Nihilism, and in the end he was himself consumed.
Despite the delusions of modern atheists, the death of religion is the death of man.
Good and Evil were overcome, and on the other side of the hill, we found nothing.

Society will become so corrupt that people will just get fed up with it and embrace the first would-be messiah or prophet figure that shows up promising to put an end to all the baseness and degeneracy and restore sanity.

It depends on what you consider "religion".

Is it only belief in the supernatural? Because yes, that part is done, no one truly believes in immaculate conception or the uncreatedness of the Quran anymore.

But I think something of the "religious spirit" survives in secular, modern ideologies. Truly you can't read about Mao's Cultural Revolution without noticing that these atheists were acting like secularists satires of religious fanaticism.

Christianity will continue it's development into a milquetoast twice-a-year religion in the west until it becomes as neutered as it is in a country with very high secularism like the Scandinavian countries. It is likely to become incorporated into the mechanics of state and society as western civilization assumes a more oligarchic and plutocratic nature as per the path of American commercialized baptist churches and mormonism.

Eastern Orthodoxy will radicalize and rally around whatever personal regime Russia adopts as it always has.

Judaism will more and more become associated with the Israeli national identity as young Jews in western nations will find it easier to just assimilate into either the new Christianity or become Atheists. Under constant siege from Islam around it, it is likely to assume a highly militant attitude as it already has in Israel.

Islam would have probably been on course for something like an Enlightenment by now being so unstable and self-destructive, but the sheer instability of the region will likely see it schism into two broad branches. The 'secular' variety which will be tied to Islamic nationalism in places like Turkey, Iran, and Saudi Arabia, and the Apocalyptic variety in the aptly apocalyptic ruins of Syria, Iraq, North Africa, and possibly Indonesia if the surveys about extremism I've read are accurate.

Eastern religion will be subsumed, either repressed by the Asian Tiger governments who tend towards Confucian authoritarianism, or integrated into said structures. This is probably a certitude for Korea and China, perhaps less so for Japan and Taiwan.

Buddhism and Hinduism are likely to become radicalized and highly frictional to one another and Islam as the climate and economic situation in South Asia worsens. Sikhism is likely to be destroyed between this conflict.

African religion will continue on it's path of multifaceted clusterfuckery. Missionaries and Imams will come into conflict.

Religious revivals and changes happen when religious practice gets wed with a new media technology.

Christianity took off because it came packaged with literacy.

Protestantism took off because it made use of the printing press.

Baneposting is the future of religion.

I can't see Islam lasting very long. It's already dying. Everyone in Iran knows Islam is a crock of shit akin to China and Communism, but the Iranian government actually keeps up the charade. Saudi Arabia might as well be full of atheists roleplaying Muslims.

And let's not forget that ISIS shows exactly what Islam done properly looks like and it turns out that it's not very fun.


Really, all questions of the future of religion rely on figuring out who the "New Jews" are to America's Rome. Once we figure that out then it's rather simple to see what comes next.

you have to be careful when considering the physical condition of Nietzsche vs. the philosophical/psychological freedom within his understanding, now I don't fully support the stances of Nietzsche but you are conflating his deleterious health with his phenomenological acuity.

but I do believe on your other point of the death of man.

But on the otherside of the hill one must lift their blinders, for in the former tool set of mind there can be no manumition without the capacity of volitional autonomy.

Let me guess, you have literally never been to Iran or Saudi Arabia. Fucking ridiculous post.

Islam will outlast Christianity (it already has, since Christianity is dead) and at some point in the future it'll be banned as a violent cult in most societies (which'll be atheist by then).

I imagine it will be coopted in order to explain away all kinds of nonsense and the scientific method will be perverted to such a degree you could hardly call it science

at least in that scenario, never put thought into how scientists would institutionalize critical rational thought as faith
