I think that new religions will not appear. All religions appeared long time ago when the people were not educated. Now to deceive the people becomes more difficult.
Religions are born and die continuously. For what we know now in the future people may worship technology or science. Or abandon the idea of a supreme being but still have spiritual beliefs. Neo-pagan religions ar growing really fast too. Also a full atheist society is possible too.
Do you think there is a possibility of new religions popping up in the future that gain a large scale following? And thought, "give it 2000 years".
In the information age and accurate record keeping, I think it would be hard for another religion to spawn in the traditional sense of a religion based on a god, unless there was an actual revealing of a god. IMO there will be no new god based religions, but maybe only something along the lines of Buddhism.

Theistic religion will slowly die out, spiritual ones like buddhism will rise, altho buddism isn't really considered a religion.
The religion of the future should be one that is the believer of "Universal Truth" where love and understanding with respect is valued. Love is one aspect that we should promote and cultivate among our brothers, where there is no love, there is agony, suffering,war and hatred is rampant.
I agree 100 % with you.
But, we have problem today that every religion in the world, and every religious leader in the world, believe that only his/her religion is the ''right'' and share ''Universal truth'' and that all other religions are wrong or heretics.
It's really very difficult to solve this problem.
Most wars and conflicts in the past happened because of religion.
It's sad reality, unfortunately, that many religions couldn't share message of ''love'' but instead shared message of ''hate'' toward others.
We have to understand that we are all one ''global'' family, with common Parent, God, what makes us all brothers and sisters.
You think religion is not a form of government? What secular gov does overtly, religions does coverly - like collecting taxes for example. Secular gov taxes you openly and in your face, while religious gov taxes you covertly, by playing your emotion. All wars are fundamentally religious, even though it might be the secular gov that does the bidding.
Religion is a tool that serves the government. Government can get rid of tools if they want to (USSR and China do so in the past).
Do you go to war because it makes you richer and more powerful, or because some people believe in the Tooth fairy? The later is an excuse to motivate the army, the first is the actual reason.
It's wrong thinking.
In many countries and regimes in the world religion was persecuted by the government.
Governments, even in former communist countries, couldn't get rid from religion and eventually this regimes collapsed, but religions are still there.
Religion helps people to find God or guide them to live moral life, spiritual life.
People will always have such tendency so because of this religion will always exist.
Control the money, control the war decisions. Religion is not needed to start a war, many have been started for other reasons (economic profit, nationalism, protection of corporate industry, monopoly of trade, independence).
The religion of the future should be one that is the believer of "Universal Truth" where love and understanding with respect is valued. Love is one aspect that we should promote and cultivate among our brothers, where there is no love, there is agony, suffering,war and hatred is rampant.

There won't be religions anymore.
We have internet now. If a mad fuck makes an appearance and introduces himself as a prophet, he will get destroyed instantly. He is not going to get destroyed by the atheists by the way, but the other ancient mad fuck followers.
Its because they don't like to share their privileges.

That's not how it usually works. Despite all logic, cult leaders still get followers this day.

Some of the religion today where came from the existing religion. The group member sometimes or the leader of that church when they did not want the flow or the relationship of its members fall off and make a new religion. Same belief and same teachings but different name of the religion with members that really supports the leader. So I guess its not new if you heard a new religion that surfaced on your community.

This is the reason we need to be wary of science. Science has become a religion tool that is being used by Government.
Want two examples of science theory that are religion because they should not fall into the realm of theory at all, because they don't fit the theory process? Big Bang Theory and Black Hole Theory. Neither of these theories should be theories because neither will ever be able to be proven to be fact or not. Yet they are very popular theories... so popular that thousands of people believe them even though they can never be proven to be true or false. When people believe something that can never be proven, they have a religion for themselves. Religion is what science has become, but it was never meant to be that way. And Government uses it to control the people.

Yeah i dont think any major religion would arise anymore in this age in the scale of christianism or islam. People think differently nowadays and with the way technology is evolving and information being easily accessible through social mediums, new religions would be hard to instill in people's beliefs.

And the New Testament of the Bible shows how to do this best.
The Gospels (first 4 books) show us the love of God for all people by the salvation God provided for us in Jesus. The Acts of the Apostles and the epistles (letters) show us the love reaction in Christian people for their fellow human beings. All we need to do is implement these things among all of us.
Left with ultimatum of believe or burn is not love. Never was, could or will be.
Being left with the free choice is love, since we willingly threw away the believe part long ago, and God revived it at great cost to Himself, so that we would have a chance to be saved.

Scientology is a religion that started on a science fiction book. And now it's a religion that people believe just like Christians and others. So as long as there are humans, a new religion can come out of anything. Even a book that's fiction. Jesus was Jewish.
