John Michael Greer discusses Ayaan Hirsi Ali´s conversion to Christianity, the Satanic Temple and a possible new Satan scare in this essay. The most interesting prediction is that many of the wokesters who currently LARP Satanism will soon convert to fundamentalist Christianity!
He also takes a broader historical look at the phenomena Spengler called the Second Religiosity and the new Age of Faith. I for one believe he is on to something. Note also the comments on the ages of "Reason", including our belief in progress.
JMG doesn´t discuss the topic in this essay, but Islam is the most obvious contender for the dominant religion in the new Age of Faith. For various reasons, I would prefer something else entirely...
People into the cyclical theory of history might also see parallels here to "the inner proletariat" and "outer proletariat" of Toynbee, Muslim populations currently being both (!) in relation to the Western world.
All in all, a tour de force from the Archdruid.
