Religije

The religious phenomenon is in fact the most important issue of today. After the epic of positivism, then the metamorphosis of materialism, the momentum of secularization and the spread of indifference before the eclipse of the sacred, religion is returning in great splendor with the increase in the number of different sects and the flourishing of charismatic movements. God has been reborn in the hearts of secular citizens. His attraction has shaken secular societies, and his power has reactivated people in their search for love and justice, for truth and freedom. Homo religiosus does not emerge only from the old worlds: Paleolithic, Neolithic, Hittite, Egyptian, Greek, Roman, Etruscan, Celtic, Germanic, Slavic, Latin American. He exists at the center of the great religions of Asia (Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism), Africa and Australia. He zealously lives his faith in the three great religions that make up the descendants of Abraham: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Far from coming to terms with the growing weakening of the sense of religiosity, as some believed, the modern age, "devoid of illusions," because of the ever-widening gap between man's infinite desires and the limitations of his existence, because of his immense desire for happiness and the inevitable burden of unhappiness he carries, and because of man's striving for life and his inevitable mortality, seeks, in spite of everything, new reasons for hope.
