All supplicate themselves to Mammon ... Read a bit - actually posted it - the other day about how traditional "religion" is no longer considered to be of "high importance" in the USA anymore - MONEY rules instead. Now I'm NOT "religious" at all - but I *do* see where "above-it-all" philosophies/theologies play important roles in social evolution. There needs to be *something* above State, above even Money, or things just go VERY bad. It's one of those Human Nature things. Ben Franklin, in a cynical moment, observed his fellow citizens - who all claimed to be "Christians" - and seeing their horrible behavior wondered what they'd be like with NO religion. Now "ethics" theoretically COULD fill the gap, but it always gets fatally entangled in, contaminated with, the favorite local religions. US public schools don't even DARE try to teach ethics anymore ..... And Gen-Z/Alpha2 clearly reflect that ..... Old ? I'm basically there now. Gen-Z/A2 is going to be in charge of our old age. That's VERY VERY scary ! MIGHT be safer to move to Japan, even China, where there's still a LITTLE respect for elders.
