But Christians are losing their own culture war. Throughout the West, not only that observant Christians are declining in number, their values are also being undermined by eternal march towards Progress that values short-term pleasures and a freer range of behaviors compared to those ordained by traditional morality. Christian leaders and institutions don't exactly provide the most exemplary moral guidance, either - many in desperation for the ears of the flock start breaking ranks and making concessions to the Zeitgeist, recognizing values alien to their historical predecessors. It's not exactly unrealistic considering the present trend that soon anything sort of washed-down diverse Unitarian Universalism will be unpalatable to polite society, discriminated as a sort of archaic bigotry.
In a way, betting on Christianity to win the war of cultural values against Progressivism is a losing fight from the get-go. It is simply far too ill-equipped. There is another religion, however, that is currently rising in prominence, rapidly growing in many Western countries, that could solve many social ills traditionalists decry about modern, secularized society.

Books now being read by pupils at Parkfield Community School include Mommy, Mama and Me and King & King, both of which are stories about same-sex relationships and marriages.
But Mr Moffat, who is gay, has come under fire from some Muslim parents who believe homosexuality is a sin.
Outraged mum Fatima Shah has taken her 10-year-old daughter out of the school.
She said: ‘It’s inappropriate, totally wrong. Children are being told it’s OK to be gay yet 98 per cent of children at this school are Muslim. It’s a Muslim community.
‘I’ve taken my daughter out and other parents have too. Enough is enough. Sex relationship education is being taught without our consent. We’ve not been informed about what’s being taught. ‘Mr Moffat is running what’s called CHIPS – challenging homophobia in primary schools – and it’s totally against Islamic beliefs. My child came home and told me am I OK to be a boy? It’s confusing children about sexuality.
‘I want my child to learn about English, maths and science. I’m keeping my daughter away from the school until something is done. I’ve been paying £20-an-hour tuition at home instead.’
Compared to Christianity, Islam has several advantages in preserving traditional morality.
The first is that its relatively exotic, non-white status confers advantageous privileges. It is far easier to advocate conservative values cloaked through "diversity" and "values of marginalized community". This is why, after all, hijab, a clothing intended as social and sexual control for women, is also bizarrely represented in woke propaganda. Or how anti-semitism penetrated Women's March (Sarsour herself being a well-known Hamas enthusiast, and Mallory an open admirer of Farrakhan). This will be increasingly evident as the number of Muslims increase, and their political clout grows in importance.
Second, Islam has a vastly more sophisticated mechanism of patriarchal social control. It is hardly controversial than in general, women have much less rights in Islam than Christianity. To be more precise, their roles and rights are clearly delineated in al-Qur'an, which is regarded as literal heavenly revelation, and thus followed pretty much word-by-word. There is no weaseling for promiscuity - homosexuality is explicitly condemned in the Qur'an, mentioned as the exact reason God punished Sodom. Fornication has a clear punishment, also explicitly written in the scripture. In short, the room for interpretation regarding sexual morality in Islam is pretty strict, and traditional scholars generally do not dispute over them. The rules made it clear - promiscuous behaviors belong only in very secret, men and women have strictly delineated roles for each other. Little wonder that Muslim communities in general tend to have higher birthrate than other communities around them.
Third, Muslim societies have a high social cohesion and intense sense of identity. Protests ensuing after perceived slights and insults to the Prophet could attest that easily. It is uncontroversial among traditional scholars that apostasy is criminal and punishable - by death. This might seem objectionable until one remembers that freedom of thought is partly the reason many drifted away and abandoned the Christian flock. Muslim societies have apostates (such as Yours Truly!) but they keep themselves in secret, behind the doors, thereby ensuring that degenerate ideas do not publicly spread. Even today, Muslims maintain highly segregated existence in Europe, ensuring preservation of their values in face of increasingly hostile world.
Plenty of Muslims have started to resist tides of Progress. Rate of opposition to homosexuality, for example, remains far higher among Muslim communities in Europe, which should a grave cause of concern among LGBT communities there. They appeal to the wishes of Western leaders to avoid offending their sensibilities, which are very thin - but on the other hand, very enforceable. Between an increasing importance of Muslim political voice in Europe, and increasing social liberalization, there's no way this bodes well. Both parties will clash, and quite violently at that.
So, traditionalists, social conservatives, fascists, and alt-rightists of NSG. Instead of the virgin Christianity, why not the chad Islam?
