Yes, indeed. I should have specified my geographical region: Western Europe. It's a very different situation compared to the USA.

It's very subjective but would like to know if some of you are sharing this feeling around you:

In the modern occidental society, Christianity, which was the spiritual tradition, was abandoned and rejected by almost all the teenagers and young adults at the end of the '60s and by the following generations.

All the next generations until now, in its majority, were declaring to be atheist and rejecting all spiritual side of life.

I don't know if all the Covid related situation changed something but, around me (25-30 years old), a non-negligible part of them started to gain an interest in spirituality (mainly Catholicism here).

Yes, indeed. But sadly, taking the vaccine doesn't prevent you from spreading the virus.

In France, cases are still increasing even if more than 75% of the population is vaccinated. We are closing the nightclubs, again, (which were allowed to people tested negative or fully vaccinated) because the virus is still spreading in the vaccinated population. Fortunately, it adds a protective layer for you, but as we can see now: not for the others.

This 29.1% effectiveness is awesome considering it is a single dose that was given.

The Tic-Tac UFO probably use MHD propulsion to move. It allows ionized air displacement in all directions depending on electrodes on the ship. So, no air resistance, no sound barrier. It move itself silently, it can move also under water, the same way it moves in the air, by displacing the water around it. It can sustain itself and accelerate in any direction depending on which electrodes are activated and so, to which direction the air is sucked. It would require a great source of energy to surround the ship surface (for something around 20m long in size) by plasma, should require something around 80000 Gauss and 1000 Megawatts for the electrical discharge.
