0:00:55.282,0:00:55.532
today's problem on the global scale

0:00:55.532,9:59:59.000
is the coexistence of our occidental renunciation of religion and the societies which have yet to recognize such renunciation

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
islam posits as a particular problem because they're our neighbors

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
they possess a particular familiarity on our culture

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
all the while holding a trauma against the occidental presence

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which poses as a menace against their collective identity

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which led to the resurgence of fundamentalism we see today

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
there is approximitely one billion person who abandoned religion

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
whilst there is another seven billion person whom, in some sort, are coerced to live with our abandonment of religion

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
by the means of cultural products which it has led to

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
science, techniques, economic reasoning

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
while living in an essencially different culture

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
we, to a great extent, can't understand their societies

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
those which we named "third world"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and refer to it today as the "south"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
without understanding the phenomenon of hierarchy

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
yes! they are hierarchal socities

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
just as how our aristocratic societies

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
were during the 17th and 18th century

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
wherein the patronage system between superior and his subordinates who depend on him

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is still omnipresent

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
westerns have a hard time understanding it

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
despite its necessity

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
we also have to understand the rest of the world

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
based on the history from which we departed

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and it's no easy task

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
because it leads to a future rife with conflicts

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
are these societies that still haven't detached from religion

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
undergoing an anthropological dynamic which will lead them to leave religion

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
like us or are they going to remain stagnant

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
i believe that it is has in fact embarked on such transition

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
amid very conflicitve conditions

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
because such change arrived from the west

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
this took us... some centuries

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and a history of conflicts

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but we did it internally

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
relying on our own means

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
whereas they've received the product of our own abandonment of religion

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
from the outside

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and they're obliged to adopt it

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
some people could tell us:" you are who you are, and we are who we are"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
we're not interested in the manner of your thinking and how you manage

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
figure it out on your own

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
no! occidental modernity is a proposition that can't be refused

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
rather, such change is imposed externally

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
leading to a collision with their profoundly inherent cultural and civilizational identitites

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
in other words, it suggests another process of leaving religion

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a very difficult one

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
more difficult than the one we underwent

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
some societies appear to have prevailed in doing so

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
until this very moment
