*MODERN
Modernity is viewed as the great antireligious movement, the great movement of rational secularization, which "killed" the mythic God and is viewed as the Great Satan. The fact that Spirit was usually left out of the equation is simply the disaster of modernity is frightening because we are co-creators of our own evolution, of our own history, of our own worldspaces. Religious authorities despise modernity, despise evolution, despise the process that is in fact working to undermine their own authority. Ironically our spiritual authorities are actually some of the great forces sabotaging Spirit's modern and postmodern embrace. They are not beyond the postmodern mind, but beneath it.
