I think we are watching the rise of the era of the totalitarian state. Institutions that don't fall into line will be systematically neutered. As these institutions fall into line their beliefs will be reinterpreted to fit the new "orthodoxy".
I believe we can learn from how the Christians failed to respond to the threat of islam as it emerged in the middle east and how Christians are wining the day in China.
