text: Every successful religion has found itself evolving as the dominant culture evolves. Their fundamentals may remain intact but their superficial aspects always reflect the prevailing culture. If this were not the case they would find themselves not recognizable by the larger population and would therefore be ignored and become extinct. What we are witnessing is most Christian traditions failing to adapt as our cultural paradigms change but instead trying to hold on to "tradition" which some call "dogma" but isn't in reality. The result is the rise of the "nones".
