The "Sensate Culture" continues to circle the drain. The late Pitirim Sorokin was truly a cultural prophet. He predicted this would be the path that the "arts" took in the decades ahead. Writing in the 1920's and later publishing a book called "The Crisis of Our Age", he accurately foresaw where our culture was headed in the arts, law, science, philosophy, ethics, etc.
I highly recommend his book if you can find it.
The downside of this, of course, is that the Muslims also claim direct revelation of God.
