As technology improved our gods got more distant from us, they also got more powerful but that was only because they decreased in number as we folded them into each other.

Agriculture, particularly the plow, did away with animistic religion, industrialization, particularly the printing press, did away with the "God that is evident in the world" which Nietzsche mourned the passing of, The internet will do away with belief in even the distant, almost deistic God of modern Christianity, as souls are already well purged by modern neuroscience and cognitive/behavioral genetics, and all it takes is for just one more generation for that knowledge to be widespread.

Society changes with it, from tribes giving way to civilizations, which then form empires, which then form into federations as things become more globalized, eventually globalism will fail and it will bring us back to an extreme individualism again, too isolated and atomized to fall back into tribes immediately, we will need some time to sift to a society where people can once again belong to one another's collective again.

The retarded ideas of the left dominate that ideological space right now, as it will soon be the only one left, we must work hard to fill in that space with some alternative ideas because it will soon become the only one left.

I went to a local Christian nationalist event lately, as soon as I arrived, I noticed how fucking old everyone was, the younger folks were far less engaged in the theory, they were more represented by what they opposed rather than by what they supported, and it would be okay if these were leaders, but they lacked a sense for political realities and strategy that told me they were going to lose their influence and become the last of their kind, watching some video series discussing these things bring me to the conclusion that religion will die in the west, even among it's most fervent supporters.

Our only hope now is to shift to formulating a religion based on scientific and philosophical principles besides those carefully selected pseudoscientific positions that the left claims as their basis of thought.

Evolutionary psychology and practical logic will form the basis of it's purpose and morality, the afterlife will be replaced with something like what you see in Buddhism and other eastern religions, but without the supernatural elements. For example; reincarnation will be just whatever physical part of you that acts as the receiver of the experience of existing being eventually recycled into becoming that of another organism, and nirvana will just be the achievement of a form of immortality in the material world of the living.

Politically, we will have an ideology that is explicitly favoring of inequality and competition, but also one that recognizes the need for some dominant authority figure with absolute power, in whom reverence is given, and to whom obedience is expected. On the three axis model, high levels of freedom in both economics and civil laws, but with the lowest amount of liberty where it comes to the political axis, democracy is dead, it remains dead, and we have all killed it, the time of monarchs and dictators will return.

The current state of things is unsustainable:
- Government has gotten too big and too involved in too many things, and nobody agrees on how our ways of living should be structured, hence why libertarianism kicks in, because then people can be left to experiment and learn from one another how to live. The only question is who should be given the protection of the law (or accountability to it)?
- The rule of the people is a concept that has been nearly completely discredited, there is a need for authoritarian leaders, and so that is what we will see, the return of the emperor, he may not be god, may not even claim to be god, but we will revere and obey him as such.
- Basically, libertarian fascism, or what the internet refers to as national capitalism, an emergent ideology that combines the ideas of minarchism with the concept of authoritarian rule, and also banking/monetary reform is almost a required addition to the minarchistic model as well.

I remember someone comparing simulation theory to gnosticism, and I can se the parallels, but the simulation theory is different in ways that make it far less perfect for us, under simulation theory our creator may be nothing special, we may be nothing special, in fact the probability is that in whatever universe our creator lives in he's a normal guy, or possibly even some loser, one among many in his world rather than a unique or special individual, and we may be one of many creations made by him and other creators like him, not the first nor the last, and most likely far from being the best of them, most probably we are average as far as simulated universes go.

God is going away, so too is the soul and the afterlife, even the concept of free will too will pass away within our lifetimes, that is, unless we can find the sciences that effectively kill the presence of these concepts and refute them, but we'd need to look into neuroscience and cognitive/behavioral genetics, then try to show why the conclusions found within these fields do not support the conclusions that their experts have come to.

Alternatively, we need to focus on practical reasons to be moral, and use similarly pragmatic reasoning to justify every policy and law we pass, we should also pull in an evolutionary gene-based psychological reasoning for these things as well, as they could back up the logical arguments by referring to the more scientific side of human behavior patterns.
