Religion makes life epic, heroic, meaningful.
Marriage is union of masculine and feminine under the watch of God.
Birth is coming a new soul in this world, death is ascension to heavens
Modern world has transformed epic struggle of the people to feed themselves, by hunting, sowing and harvesting, in a uneventful 9 to 5 job and a trip to supermarket.
Marriage is a social contract, birth a medical procedure, death a disease.
Everything is uneventful and predictable, that becomes boring
Compare the dullness of modern life with the passion of religious life. Man is an actor in the divine plan. Devil and God, fight for his soul.
His actions have cosmic consequences, he and people could in hell or in heaven.
No wonder that people will return to religious life and reclaim their individual importance.
