Summary/Abstract: Characterized by the phenomen of secularization, desacralization, and globalization, contemporary society lifts the curtain on the religious feeling impregnated in human nature, facilitating the staging of a role play depicted in the forms of syncretism, relativism, and gnosticism. Specifically, 15% of Romania's population did not declare their religious affiliation in the 2022 population census. In other words, 2.7 million Romanians refused to answer the questionnaire in which they were asked to express their spiritual identity. This statistical picture opens up the opportunity to express pertinently, without falling into judicial extremism, what could be the factors that led to this demographic religious decline.
