Do not forget that modern censorship is enacted now through a prism of secular life. And do not doubt for a single moment that secular and scientific living produces new systems of censorial control over religious expression. The message begins with a discussion of the influence of tacit human belief in the recent acts of scientific censorship via digital platforms. This, in turn, invites reflections on what modern, mostly Western media censorship now looks like and how that affects thought and lives. A short methodological overview and some historical perspective will follow. The meat of the essay will be spent exploring all these described connections and relational axes, and subsequently offer a case study in the form of the recent Austrian COVID laws. Finally, some concluding notes discuss future considerations for media censorship in times of religious revival.
