On constate actuellement que l'évolution des sociétés s'accompagne d'une perte de référence à la transcendance ; l'hédonisme ambiant, l'esprit libertaire, les découvertes biologiques et technologiques, les nouveaux modèles économiques et sociaux conduisant à un individualisme destructeur de l'humanisme.
