Evolving Religious Undertones and Responsibility Illusions

Exploring the shift towards recognizing the world's creatures without constant reference to a creator, the chapter examines the implications for discussions in ecology and reflects on the nature of belief. Critiquing the idea of responsibility as an illusion, it discusses how it can be manipulated to instill a false sense of influence and power while contrasting it with emerging new religiosity centered on celebrating the present and minimal resource use.
