Religion Replacements
Our culture has rejected religion, and has created a vacuum of sorts. But, in the vacuum, other things have rushed in. Here are some things that have replaced religion:
Holidays:
- Going to IKEA on Sundays instead of church
- Sunday hockey practice (I have heard many times that ‘hockey is my family’s religion’ – you can replace this with football, cricket or whatever your national sport is if you are not Canadian)
- Santa, has replaced Jesus at Christmas
Being Part of Something:
- Wearing branded merchandise
- Your job and/or profession take on a more important role here than they may have in the past
- Cheering for a sports team
That’s it for now.
