What good, the negatives are often talked about - culturally practices has secular society brought forward? The most obvious one most often championed being acceptance and fair treatment for all. But what positive culturally practices have come forward that isn't just a call back to previous religious hegemony

None, the effect of secularism is purely negative, as you should expect for a movement which is simply rebellion against the true God.

I think those countries got rich of Protestant work ethic leading to the way of humans being turned into automated bug people. Those top ten also suffer absurdly high suicide and mental illness rates despite doing economically well. This isn't really answering what culture has been made under secularism.

I think media has is a good point, people are free to make their own media without worry of offending the churchs but day to day living i'm not sure.

Religious societies are always better. The most powerful countries in the world are Christian

More freedom in general.

It has other negative things off course but overall I think it's better.

That's from Christianity's influence, not secularism.

I don't care what you think because it's based on coping narratives you prefer to be true. Yeah low-religion-importance countries' richness you blame on "Protestantism" (even though again they place a low importance on religion) based on vibes because you prefer it to be true because it fits your narrative and conveniently you spotlight "mental illness" for low-religious importance countries rather than any other hundreds of high performing metrics. Conveniently you leave out happiness metrics because it might not fit your narrative as well. You people always cope that nonreligious countries' success are because of religion. People are waking up and realizing this propaganda is bullshit.

As much as we hate on secular society, you have to admit that 4chan and the kind of nihilistic contrarianism that allows people to simultaneously masturbate to tranny porn while also spreading hardcore trad Catholicism probably wouldn’t exist without it.

>Give people unlimited freedom in a nice liberal society
>History ends
Then two things take place:
>People grow rich and bored of this freedom to the point where they want to destroy it and restart history just for the adventure that destroying it would bring and also the meaning restarting history would give to their life.
And/Or
>People are so used to living the good life that truly minor shocks that their non-secular ancestors would definitely have weathered cripples them (They can no longer afford a box of orange Royal pops and now have to buy inferior orange McJuice pops time to start a communist revolution even though grandpa, who lived in a non-liberal society, could barely afford a loaf of bread yet was fine with that.)

I agree that all those things you listed about secular society are good but how do you break this cycle?
>>
>>18389045
If people have a more or less comfortable life there won't be any revolution. People just want to live well, have a job, a house, some money to spend on their free time, have fun, etc. All the political conflicts is created by the political parties to make people angry and get supporters.

that sounds religios.

>>18386713
yeah, they're kinda leeching off of religious faith; there's definitely a parasite thing from them to their host.
