belief in the religious/spiritual has dropped precipitously as people urbanized. high weirdness can’t exist on a crowded city street. as cities become increasingly strange/deterritorialized over the next decade, you have to assume the eternal things outside will come back inside

you can see this undertone in many of the spiritual movements alive in the city. pastor jon tyson talks of their revival (my word, not his) being in the most unlikely place, “the city”. it’s probably not a coincidence that it started in rented apartment, not a cathedral
