Seculosity: How Career, Parenting, Technology, Food, Politics, and Romance Became Our New Religion and What to Do about It by David Zahl

3.0

I am actually rating this book 3.5 stars. The premise of this book is that as Americans have left organized religion, they have look to every day activities for identity, purpose and meaning. Examples include: parenting, romance, politics, technology, food, and more. This has led to anxiety, strained relationships, and performancism.

Some of the analysis in the book was familiar and contained nothing groundbreaking, while other parts of the book gave me a totally new way of looking at things and several aha moments. If you enjoy reading analysis of our current culture, then you may enjoy this book.
