I don't know either but I'm convinced there needs to be some kind of religious framework behind it. People need a certitude even if it is bullshit when you think about it, most people don't want to or actively refuse to think about it.
Co-opting an existing religion would put us hundreds of years ahead. The way I see it is there are two paths. One is use christianity and the other is use islam.
Christianity is the easier but probably weaker foundation since anyone can start a christian cult. Pushing something like eastern orthodox might be workable since they seem the least pozzed.
Islam, on the surface, looks pretty damn based. From what little I know to convert all you have to do is say you convert. Then do regular performative public rituals to demonstrate you are loyal. The downside is there doesn't appear to be a mechanism for islam to internally police itself so there isnt a good way to "steer the ship".
These really are questions for someone smarter than me.
Of the two I would certainly prefer Christianity. I think it would be easier to use within the Western world since it already has a long history within the culture. It would need to return to something of its roots when it was a religion of strength rather than the limp wristed defeatism it currently manifests as. There's an old morally strong foundation to build on but we need to unearth it first since they last several decades have done nothing but layer weakness and degeneracy over it.
On the other hand, those most in need of such a guiding light seem least likely to follow it. It has become hip and cool to abandon religion. Many are currently wandering aimlessly with little more direction than an aversion to the religion that came before(Christianity).
I'll definitely agree that these are conundrums for someone cleverer than us, though I worry we may be the only ones working the issue at all, so maybe that just means we need to step up our game.
