In his latest contribution to the secularization debate, Richard Fenn looks at the way in which we experience time in a secular society. In Fenn's view, secularization is conductive to individualism. And although it is often the Church that decries both secularization and modern individualism, he says it was in fact the Church that created them by its demystification of the universe, its insistence on individual self-discipline, and its intensification of individual responsibility for the use of time. Required to take responsibility for his or her own standing in the eyes of God, the individual emerges from the protection of the Church into the full current of time. The result is a profound change in the way in which time is experienced by the individual.
