Secular Christianity in Business

The dominant business model at this point on earth came mostly from Secular Christianity. This is both good and bad for the rest of the world. It occurs to me that one of the many reasons why segments of Islam are fighting the Western World is Islam wants it's own form of cultural dominance and economic dominance here on earth. This is both good and bad for the rest of earth just like the dominance of Secular Christianity through World War I and II was both good and bad for the rest of the world.

However, realizing that this is what a lot of ISIS and Al Qaeda is about just like Arafat evolved from a terrorist to being a Palestinian leader of El Fatah. So, I think we might see evolutions like we saw in Yasar Arafat to other Islamic terrorist leaders in the present and future. Though Arafat was eventually poisoned by radiation poisoning this does not lessen the positive impact he had in making peace with the Israelis over time and the positive influence he had over his people.

1. Fatah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I think part of what is happening is historically Islam is going through a lot of the same evolutions that Christianity did over 2000 years.

To make sense of this time wise Islam is 600 years younger than Christianity which is 500 years younger then Buddhism.

So, each of these three religions is at different evolutionary change point in it's history. So, where was Christianity about 600 years ago?

   Understanding this in regard to a large religion like Islam makes what is happening now much more sensible in this context. 

   
   

   Like People, religions evolve over time. They have natural evolutionary cycles too that they go through. What people believe now in Christianity isn't what they once believed. What people believe now in Islam is not what they once believed either nor will now be what they believe 600 years from now. Religions evolve like people do when they are like children and growing up. Their beliefs change over time given their experiences in the world. 

   
   

   For example, just since the 1950s there are extreme changes here in the U.S. regarding religious tolerance. Christians often would just "Bury someone in their backyard" in the south especially if they held too outrageous a point of view. Now this isn't always the case over 50 years later. 

   
   

   So, what I'm saying here is just how much Christianity has changed just in 50 years here in the U.S.

   
   

   In the 1950s I had to be careful not to talk about my Christian sect with people because we believed in reincarnation and we were vegetarians. Though this was more acceptable in Los Angeles than other places in the U.S. I still had to be careful what I said to people even as a child growing up in Los Angeles then. But now, in comparison almost anything goes.

   
   

   Religions and religious tolerance of others changes over time to many different forms worldwide over time. Religions change and evolve over time like people do.

   
   

   And this affects business worldwide ongoing in various different ways.
