People don’t feel they need a religion to live by. All faiths are in identity crisis (even Islam). I think the Khalsa will save this world - read Dasam Granth. Our Gurbani can compete with this. This is all planned. But Atheism will also fail as it is totally material. AI tech itself is proving a spiritual realm exists and to survive we need to be aware of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranjeet01 Posted February 23, 2023 Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 I would not say necessarily that there is a decline of religion per se. I would say that it is the abrahamic political strangehold has been unahackled off the populace and it has been happened for a long time. There are new religions like environmentalism movement, trans etc seem to be in the fore now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scali Posted February 23, 2023 Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 GOD is the creator and the created. All possibilities exist so we choose our experiences. If an Atheist chooses his/her experience, it will be separation since GOD is unity (one consciousness) the universe will honor his choice and bring him/her that experience. Life is about free will choose and experience. GOD doesn't judge if you are an Atheist or a saint. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life is about free will choose and experience. GOD doesn't judge if you are an Atheist or a saint. The irony of course is that the Atheist is connected with one-ness. They never were separated really, it is just the perception that they are. This thread though it says "Decline of Religion", I think it means Rise of Atheism and not believing in God therefore is conflated with Decline in religion. Who says that you have a religion to believe in God. Even in Bani it says "Na koi Musalman, na koi Hindu". These are labels we give each other. We are so indoctrinated in the Abrahamic ways, it really limits our understanding. Our concept of what God is very different of what the Muslim/Christian concept is. The Decline of Religion is more an issue in the west as the Church is in Decline (though in my opinion it has been going on for centuries). After 2000 years of being under the church's yolk, Europe is going back to it's Dharmi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which rules/restrictions that are common in different religions are people happy to abide by? You've just asked a completely different question by the looks of it. What do you mean by 'common in different religions'? How does that have any bearing? My point was that many people seem to adopt at least some restrictions on their life. The reality is that people do pick and choose. I mean we all know that martial training for dharam yudh is an essential part of Khalsa code of conduct (hence panj hathiars), but how many Amritdharis actually do this? I've met plenty of pak-sullay who would never in a million years eat pork or non-halal as it is 'haraam' but still indulge in drinking and drugs even despite this too being haraam. I've met Jews also, who aren't remotely practising but do not eat pork. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
