Suddenly, it's all become clear, the impetus behind this whole religious revival thing. On the one hand, we've got massive geopolitical turmoil and economic instability fostering a return to the safe haven of religion. And at the same time, millions upon millions of Baby Boomers--no longer the darlings of the anti-establishment--are growing old and gray, waxing nostalgic about going to church with their parents and worrying more and more about the afterlife. So basically, people everywhere are looking for "answers"--especially the generation that's currently at the height of its power and influence.
Goddammit. Don't that timing just beat all?
