What has happened to God in our time??? I know from reading history books that in the past everyone had a strong belief of a God, no matter what the specific religion was. It was a traditional thing that was followed in the family and if you didn't believe in God you were looked down upon and as an evil person. People would seek advice and help from God when obstacles were present. It was like if God was the go to guy for any problem in that time.
In our time it seems that many people stop believing that a God exists. The tradition of family believing in God is pretty much shattered. As children grow up they leave and forget about family traditions and replace them with their own. Another idea is that with new technology people seem to be less likely to be dependent of God or look for help from God. Unless there is an extreme circumstance then people remember that there is a God and that he might be able to help.(if that's true idk)
Maybe it has to due with the fact that our lives are full of activities and work that there is no time for God. Also the idea of God maybe vanishing from our time being replaced by other beliefs that don't require the belief of a God. For example Buddhism is a philosophy that has become popular in our day and may replace the idea of God for the non believers.
In conclusion it seems that the idea of a God is slowly disappearing in this time but if it will completely disappear and become something our children will only read about in the future is yet to be determined.
