As seen from today’s class discussion, religion has been diminishing from newer generations because of the introduction of the internet into our society. There are outlets on the internet that have made expressing religion easier. These outlets are seen from apps designed for religion itself or just the use of social websites like seen in this article I found here.
On the other hand, where traditional religions are stagnating on bringing in new members there has been some new brand new religions birthed through the internet. For example there is a religion based off of file sharing on computers. It is even recognised as real religion in Sweden. There are some even weirder ones out there that you don't have to look far on the internet to find; however you’ll probably be the judge on their authenticity.
I found the file sharing religion here, It is number ten, the first one shown so you don’t have to watch the entire video. This is just for citing where I found it and the guys who make these videos cite their sources and from my experience on youtube seem to be that they aren’t really biased and are more concerned with facts.
