Religion and Digitalisation: A Journey from Tradition to the Future

This study, which looks at the relationship between religion and the digital world, a term used to describe today's rapidly developing communication and information technologies, offers a glimpse of the future from the present of digital religion. The rituals and practices in which digitalized religion differs from traditional religion are significant in terms of mindsets and habits in the daily lives of individuals. However, the fact that individuals change their religious identity and affiliation for periods that can be considered frequent and even choose to leave religion makes them religious nomads. Religious nomadism expresses the reflection of the individual's identity construction on digital platforms. Studies show that similar cases will become more frequent in the coming years. With the concern that this and similar situations will become more frequent in the future and against possible similar phenomena, individuals, groups, or organizations should participate in digital platforms and produce content. The study examines this shortcoming through various examples.

Abstract

This study, which looks at the relationship between religion and the digital world, a term used to describe today's rapidly developing communication and information technologies, offers a glimpse of the future from the present of digital religion. The rituals and practices in which digitalized religion differs from traditional religion are significant in terms of mindsets and habits in the daily lives of individuals. However, the fact that individuals change their religious identity and affiliation for periods that can be considered frequent and even choose to leave religion makes them religious nomads. Religious nomadism expresses the reflection of the individual's identity construction on digital platforms. Studies show that similar cases will become more frequent in the coming years. With the concern that this and similar situations will become more frequent in the future and against possible similar phenomena, individuals, groups, or organizations should participate in digital platforms and produce content. The study examines this shortcoming through various examples.
