secularization
Secularization is the cultural process that drags religious authority down into everyday chores and replaces the sacred with slogans and advertisements. The chimes of a shopping mall dominate people’s spirits more than temple bells, and prayers become marketing strategies for likes and shares. Faith is standardized into manuals, ceremonies evolve into mild sales pitches, and the holy is packed into plastic bags for mass distribution. Ultimately, humanity comes to crave point cards over miracles and sales over salvation.
