Just the way the world is now? So many religions, but so little morality and humanity as a whole in the world. With the current capitalist/consumer-ism/selfish mindset that is programmed into most people in childhood, knowingly or unknowingly, where will life lead the future of human kind spiritually? Even most Christian churches are a fashion parade if little else, with the preachers (Creflo Dollar comes to mind) frequently speaking on money and increasing "wealth" per the gospel.
Where are these concepts going to lead people in the future?

All those things you mention (even in the church) will lead to destruction.
Unless people come to realize the power of God in their lives to help them control the thoughts in their minds.....they will just go on blindly seeking??? ....maybe whatever whim comes to mind.
We CAN control these thoughts and change them to caring about our neighbor ...with God's power:
Rom 8:6-10
6 The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; 7 the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so. 8 Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.
9 You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ. 10 But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness.
(from New International Version)
Rom 12:1-4
2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will.
3 For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you.
(from New International Version)
