Well, I can't speak for all modernists, but I personally won't be satisfied until I'm God Himself.
In the religious sense or in the secular sense?
What's your life's ambition, to raise a family in a quaint Tuscan villa somewhere? That's cute.
I think you’ve taken my point to be the opposite of what it really is. My point is that no matter how confusing, fast paced, or modern your life is, traditional religion offers you exactly the same experience as was offered to Tuscan villagers a millennium ago. I think that that’s worth something immeasurable.
