Summary/Abstract: The contemporary man must be kept in a sphere of spiritual preocupations because the modern and the post-modern society does not offer anything but surrogates and challenges that distance him from the healthy pursuit. Moral insecurity is the effect of estrangement from faith by eliminating the possibility to mediate on the spiritual inside, by tiring the mind with material, ephemeral things. Economy, running low, brings about a state of Crisis in one’s mind but the real crisis is the spiritual one, for which nobody initiates a reabilitation programme; this precarious state of religions life cannot be transcended but by rediscovering Christian identity. This means a re-evaluation of priorities in the order of their importance.
