The US is due another Christian revival. We rely on technology to solve our problems, which is something it is not capable of doing; as Jesus said there will always be the poor. The woke theology is literally the same as Maoist theology. It wants to destroy the past by judging it by contemporary standards. Gender theology is based on the lie that if you are unhappy, there is something wrong with you, a partial byproduct of social media were people show a false life devoid of it's harsh realities. As Thoreau said, most people live a life of quite desperation, desperately seeking it's meaning (the song that is within them); the curse of being sentient is the life long search for the reason we exist. The answer can not come from human centered philosophy such a as Marxism, it can only come from recognition that life is impossibly hard and we need to seek a power greater than ours to survive it. Most psychologist will begrudgingly admit that there is a psychological need for religion, a void in our psyche that can only be filled by something greater than ourselves; this what Nietzsche meant when he described the result of eliminating God from our lives.
God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers? What was holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet owned has bled to death under our knives: who will wipe this blood off us? What water is there for us to clean ourselves? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we have to invent? Is not the greatness of this deed too great for us? Must we ourselves not become gods simply to appear worthy of it?
— Nietzsche
Nietzsche describes the void of eliminating God and how we must become God's ourselves to fill it. But history has shown the impossibility of mankind creating it's own morality (the basis of Marxism) because it assumes a fantastical malubility of humanity that simply doesn't exist and ignores that mankind is too absorbed in itself to create it's own morality. God did not give us a moral code to control us (he did after all give us free will), instead it was to protect us from the wages of sin. IOW, God does not punish us for our sins, it is simply the result of our selfish behavior that causes more pain and hardship. We also live in a broken world were even those that try to live an unselfish life will suffer, but without God and fellowship we all suffer alone.
Shall we gather at the river?
Where bright angel feet have trod
With its crystal tide forever
Flowing by the throne of God…
