What will the consumer society lead to?

To the Death of Civilization
If consumption continues to rise in the near future, we will face the depletion of natural resources and wars over them.
Inflating consumption for the sake of more consumption cannot continue indefinitely. The depletion of resources will lead to their shortage, and uncontrolled lending will lead to the depreciation of money. The result could be a crisis never seen before, with people fighting for food and starving to death, and endless rows of coffee makers and televisions piled up on store shelves.

How will the distribution of world religions change in the future?
2023-04-26 13:44:59
Until 2060, Christians will remain the largest religious group. By 2060, Islam will become the main world religion that will take the place of Christianity. 3.23 billion Muslims and 2.99 billion Christians.
The main reason for the rapid growth of Muslims is a high birth rate, and not the departure of people in Islam. Moreover, the main driver of this process will not be the countries of the Middle East, but ... India and the USA. India - due to the rapid general increase in the population, America - due to mass immigration. The number of Buddhists of the world is expected to remain approximately at the same level due to a low birth rate and aging of the population in countries such as China, Thailand and Japan.
This is just a forecast based on current demographic trends. In the future, various kinds of scientific and technological revolutions may occur, which will affect the worldview of people in a completely different way. It also does not take into account the consequences of wars taking place on the planet. If we take into account the consequences of wars, then Hinduism will come in second place.

What is more important – spiritual or material?
2023-11-10 12:07:34
Balance is important
It is quite obvious that we need to look for a middle ground in this matter: both the pursuit of material goods and complete indifference to the outside world are two extremes.
Material wealth in this case becomes destructive if a person does not possess spiritual wealth.
