From Christian faith to nihilistic void
"Commentators have mentioned the excessive submission ('love your enemy',
'turn the other cheek') and the guilt ('original sin'). However,
despite all their imperfections and the corruption they've been
subjected to, traditional religions still convey some important values:
solidarity, charity, community, love. In this sense the materialistic,
individualistic values that have been hammered into our minds are far
worse than the religious ones that preceded them."
