We live now in a post-secular age.  What does that mean for gestalt therapy?

In thinking about the current situation in which people are calling for a revolution, here is an exerpt from an interesting article:

"But post-secularism proves to be useful also for the third party which simultaneously opposes both, enlightenment
and tradition: the party of revolution. This variant of the post-secular debate, which revolves mostly
around the “revolutionary figure” of Saint Paul (Agamben, Badiou, Žižek), constitutes a radically leftist answer to
the crisis of Marxism with its allegedly scientific insight into the objective laws of history. With the decline of the
Marxist grand narrative of the “end of history” realized in global communism, these thinkers turn to Saint Paul
who founded new religion through a radical break with all traditional systems of faith and social organization.
Here, the religious original act of the “foundation of the new” is meant as an inspiration against the late-modern
tendency to see the social world as devoid of political alternatives, in other words as the semi-naturalized biopolitical
process of “bare life,” dominated solely by the issues of social wellbeing. Thus, while the enlightenmental
post-secularism invokes revelation against naturalism, and the traditionalist post-secularism calls upon religious
orthodoxy against nihilism, the revolutionary section refers to religion against indifferentism, that is, a social
state of mind in which a foundational Event and political decision is no longer possible.” (Bielick-Robson, 2019, p.58-59)
