The Impact of Technology on Belief

In today's world, the conveniences of technology, such as cities, automobiles, and easy access to goods, have created a comfortable environment that removes the need to navigate and interact with the natural world. This has resulted in a diminished sense of the immediate presence of God and a loss of connection to the natural revelation of His creation. The modern labor system, driven by monetary incentives, often disconnects individuals from their intrinsic aptitudes and sense of purpose, leading to a lack of fulfillment and meaning in work. Additionally, the shift towards urban living and the reliance on technology has eroded the sense of community and interpersonal relationships that were once more prevalent. These changes in how we relate to the world and ourselves contribute to a general sense of agencylessness that challenges belief in God and requires effort to maintain faith.
