Religion is irrelevant
The West’s decay is not spiritual but structural. Its economy was reengineered into an abstract casino—profits derived from speculation rather than production, and “growth” measured in asset inflation rather than tangible prosperity. Financialization severed the link between work and wealth, birthing a parasitic elite class feeding on debt instruments while the real economy atrophied. The 2008 collapse merely exposed the deeper truth: the system had long since stopped creating value, surviving only through monetary illusion.
Empire accelerated the rot. The United States, like Rome before it, mistook global reach for strength. Maintaining hundreds of bases and fighting endless wars became a form of ritual sacrifice to preserve hegemony, draining national vitality while enriching private contractors. Each intervention bled the treasury and moral authority dry, converting legitimacy into resentment abroad and decay at home. Infrastructure, education, and innovation—true engines of civilizational continuity—were cannibalized to sustain the spectacle of global dominance. The empire’s overreach was not a sign of confidence but of inner emptiness seeking validation through control.
Beneath it all lies material exhaustion: the depletion of cheap energy, rare minerals, and domestic productive capacity. The West offshored its industry, its expertise, even its future, betting that finance could replace physical reality. It cannot. Resource scarcity and eroded know-how make reindustrialization almost impossible. Yet while these structural failures unfolded, public discourse fixated on theological blame games—Christian decline, moral decay, atheism—as if collapsing energy returns or imperial overextension could be solved through prayer. Christianity’s presence throughout this timeline proves its irrelevance: the rot was material, systemic, and self-inflicted. The religious debates are theater—moral fog concealing the empire’s terminal insolvency.
