In Genius, Harold Bloom says wrongly that
the dawning age
will be one of theocracies.
Triadic Philosophy says religion will morph
into spirituality over time.
The suppositions that
power religious division are
false by simple logic.
The creedal basis of Christianity is
essentially idolatrous in its exclusionary focus.
It supports institutional
and priestly arrangements
that reduce rather than enhance
prospects for human fulfillment
and ethical progress.
In reality, we are seeing a
growth of tolerance
and a decline in religious allegiance.
Web-assisted, if you will.
The world,
as Bonhoeffer understood,
is coming of age.
The way ahead is secular,
but not devoid of spirituality.
Theocracies will go
the way of dictatorships.
