Do you ascribe to a particular weltanschauung that you could recommend as a comprehensive philosophy of living? Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream.... Where do you think human society is moving as regards the convergence of religions with emerging science and technology? Will the old guard dig in their heels, or will they quietly (or loudly)invent changes in their dogma, and slip into the new milennia? They're doing all of the above... some are digging in the heels, some are browsing into their own pagan roots, some are looking east, some are worshipping UFOs. They try all kinds of stuff. Me, I row my boat; what others do is no concern of mine, as long as they don't try to ram it down anyone else's throat. It is mildly amusing to wonder what sort of religion people will be practicing in, say, 2500 years, if we're still around, and how their histories will remember our religions. I suspect that Christ, Allah, Buddha, etc. will seem as quaint and primitive to them as Odin, Zeus etc. are to us.
