The current social, political and economic trends are threatening the way Christianity has shaped the perception people towards life. Given the current trends it is important that people ask themselves hard questions such as; if the organization of the community promotes equality and if the current lifestyle is what God intends it to be like.

Every time the economically and politically powerful address the future. They give the society the mindset that those who contribute more to the production process are more important. They give a future vision where power will be in hands of the simple elite. They visualize a fast expanding production, greater competition and wider gaps between the poor and rich.
Theology has the power to counter these ideologies and fight for the many with small voices in the community. If the trend goes on minority will have no say in the community. There is also a possibility that they will not be involved in decision making processes. The result will be the human right will be no longer respected and human dignity eroded making the meaning of life be altered.
This vision needs to be countered to save the future. Christianity clearly states we should not allow such divisions in the community but seek to do away with them. It is important we work towards a balance even as we strive to achieve our goals, values and priorities.
The current trends need to take a new dimension because change is necessary. There is need for a society that sees itself as part of the large whole is we will have qualitative growth.

From Ireland it is evident that economic growth can result to greater divisions if it is not handled properly. Lack of involvement of religious groups and all people in decision making can lead to vulnerability of the disadvantaged groups in the society.
