When the west lost religion, all it had left were remnants of virtues, aimlessly competing against each other: 

courage 
strength
wisdom
diversity 
inclusion
ambition
safety
intelligence

Any virtue, if sought out as the ultimate good, becomes a false god. We worship them at our peril. 

These gods come and go - in 2020 safety and control were our gods. Which one is next?
