Iron Age religions will probably remain popular among the uneducated, while the brainy types among the neo-Missionaries can give rise to space-oriented religious weirdness. Like worship of a "Star Maker" or "Spirit of the Cosmos" and revelations received by minds augmented by biotech. The Missionaries were critical of Gilded hedonism, and the neo-Missionaries might be equally critical of dionysian culture left from the millennial cycle.
-- ok, how bout calling them neoTranscenentals then? I have nothing against spirituality & spiritual stuff. lts religion l don't care for, telling ppl to believe this nonsense & do that evil thing, discriminating against ppl, perpetrating & perptuating wars, etc.. l don't have a problem with Spiritual Beings but l do wish religions would just go away
