It asks: because religion provided certain benefits in a certain time and a certain place, and now no longer does so, can the humanities play the same role instead? Or will the market take over completely? Or is there a third alternative?
People currently consider questions of values, sympathy and the attainment of the good life outside of a religious framework, so it would appear to be a moot point.
