Next #Secularization

Secularization as the independence from religious authority is rational progress toward the autonomous evolved consciousness.

The next upcoming secularization extends towards independence from scientific and economic authority, achieved by

- economic independence by shunning fake products and flight from slavery through self-employment
- replacement @economics @politics @philosophy @society @education @rants

I started Day 2 of #Atheism Explained? in another #Secularization session.

First, highlights of interviews about non-#religiosity in #Estonia from Atko Remmel (researchgate.net/profile/Atko-)

Then Piotr Paweł Laskowski shared that in an expanded DIM-R dataset (doi.org/10.1080/2153599X.2024.) there were — among other things — intermediate relationships between analytic thinking and (lower) odds of #religion in a large sample of people from #Poland — more on this tomorrow, I'm told.

In the opening plenary session of #Atheism Explained?, three authors meet commenters.

The #book: Beyond Doubt
The #Secularization of #Society (amzn.to/3zcRR5y)

Phil Zuckerman compared the book's claims to prior claims about #religion.

Ryan Cragun sketched their multi-facted model of secularization.

Isabella Kasselstand showed us how some of the #data aligns with the model.

Hugh Turpin and Lois Lee gave rousing commentary!

🇺🇸 How Christianity’s Decline Impacts White Christians’ Emotional and Attitudinal Response

“Racial resentment predicts Christian nationalism, Christian persecution beliefs, and White persecution beliefs. In other words, negative stereotypes about Black Americans are related to Christian nationalism and persecution beliefs. But while Whiteness and Christianity are undeniably intertwined among Whites, our experiment provides evidence that they cannot be conflated.”

Interesting to note the rapid secularization of #Italy. In just 20 years, non-practitioners have surpassed assiduous practitioners in most Italian regions.

@njudd That #secularization in #SociologyOfReligion was wrong not so much because it failed to adequately consider belief without belonging, but because it ignored global religion.

Nietzsche’s declaration “God is dead (and we have killed him)” is often misunderstood as a way of saying atheism is true; but he more means the entirety of Western civilization rests on values destined for “collapse”. The appropriate response to the death of God should thus be deep disorientation, mourning, and reflection...
