Maybe no new religions will pop up (soon anyways). But if old ones don't die the mess that has been created through the indoctrination brought about by these ideologies will continue unabated. I have hope in crypto though. If you can cut off the money supply into the coffers of these religion keepers you might stand a chance to starve them and bring about change. It will not happen easily though. Old ideologies don't die easily.

The secret imo is not to replace old ideologies with new ones but to render the whole fucking system useless by making it obsolete. Easier said than done, that's for sure. But I have hope. The time of crypto has come and with it promise - beyond the control of these systems of indoctrination (of the masses).


Such a thing as this absolutely cannot happen. Why not? Because people are religion-minded creatures. If they weren't, religion would have been gone long ago.

However, if it did happen, God wouldn't have any reason to hold people dear to Himself any longer. He would come and put an end to them and this universe. And maybe that's exactly why the end WILL come. It might be that there will be so few believers in Him at some time in the near future, that He will have no desire to continue this earth and universe.

Snap your fingers. Blink your eyes. God is so powerful that destroying this universe is as easy as that for Him.

If people have changed over the years, it is only regarding their general devolution. And, it isn't much of a change over the last 4,500 years or so... if not longer.

So, why do we need a new religion at all? Virtually all the themes that could be applied to religion have been developed over the last 4,500 years. We simply can't think up any new religious themes that have never been thought of before. The closest we have come in this modern age is believing in science theory as truth without knowing it. And the scientists and people that so believe, simply refuse to call it religion, even though it fits the "religion" definition.

The world has changed. People are less and less thinking of his soul. Religion is no longer interested in them as before. Everyone wants to make money, no time for religion. In the future there will be religions

Hopefully no Religion.


I convinced religions is just a way for the least resistance. Critical and free thinking is suppressed by most Religions.

Hopefully Humans will be free in the future and not believe in any fairytales anymore.
Every religion is an attempt to subjugate people. Let them believe I don't mind. The main thing that the preachers taught good things.

Religion is a great business. just imagine how much people are giving every month if they ask 10% of their monthly income. they call this Tiths as far as i know.
God really needs that much money and it all goes to the Church leaders.

Hope there will be no religion in the future. we can all agree to have just one and the SUN could just be it.

There will be no more religion. And those that exist enough. Their position is difficult to dislodge something new. And for what? All religions are harmful to mankind

In my opinion, we don't need more religion because, in fact, all religion talking about the same God and about the same common idea: God is creator, people failed and separated from God, Messiahs, salvation, creation of new world, love, peace, harmony etc.
So, we need unification of today's religions, and they should work together to achieve world peace, harmony, restoration of moral values etc.
All religion share many common points so religious leaders should really repent and start to work together in order to restore and rebuild this world.
They can influence people much more than politicians.
It will be good also to create religious council at UN, so that religious leaders can work for world pace together with politicians.
So, I don't believe in the religion of the future but I believe in one, united religious council in the future.


But, but, but...

I want truth.

My religion is only right religion.

My understanding of God is only correct understanding.

Religious leaders of world, get together if you want. I be my own religious leader of church of all people who believe the same way I do.

No unity of religion with people who don't believe truth.

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.

Thoughts?

i dont think a new religious system will popped up soon.However, i think people will be getting and getting nonbeliever in near future because people are experiencing that all the religions dont bring peace to the world. they all bring sorrows to our world..

New most likely will not. But reviving old traditions in some areas. Slavic people revives paganism that existed before Christianity.

Religions are power- and money based. Followers are led to believe doctrines that would make followers do illogical things and even totally irrational things in extreme cases. New religion(s) will pop up if a void appears and the old ones start to look obsolete as is now the case. I'm hoping for decentralization so the power and money are at least spread all over the show.

There's already a kind of new religion spreading and that's the football, with its big figures like Pelé, Maradona or Kopa.
It is happening but it is not religion it is called cult. People praise a certain person because they think this person can change their lives by making it better.
Yaa it's called cult following !!! But i would rather tell Football fans. I don't like the fact that these games are highlighted soo much in our current society. It's nothing wrong being a football lover but it's insane to be crazy for football clubs or footballers. It is not right to idealize people we have never met.
It will be more crazy if this fans tried to hurt people, you know it is happening like when their favorite team lost and they can't accept it. Some of them go inside the court and act like crazy hurting and sometimes looking for a fight for the opponent of the team he admire.

i would like to think that organized religion would have been discarded in the dustbin of history. unfortunately its claws are buried much too deep in the psyche of gullible followers, while reaping untold benefits for the opportunists who operate them.

Yes this is very true. Most religions want the people to remain poor and uneducated because they will be easier to oppress and manipulate. What kind of people are those who spread the word of god supposedly but are really opportunists that only use the people for money and influence. They are the same as the people running the government.

I hope one day people will give up all that nonsense and just learn to live in peace.  Luckily technology is helping people to become more educated and at some point they will stop believing the words of a group of illiterate nomad who wondered the desert 3000 years ago.

Well it seems that techology is actually making mankind more stupid. Nobody believed flat earth lie 10 years ago.

That's a good point. However, if you compare ourselves with the nomads who invented the monotheistic religions...well, technology has helped us a lot. Knowledge is quickly accessible, which doesn't mean that everyone takes advantage of that.

The reason for that is the internet. We have a population of 7,2+ billion people.
The law of big numbers tell us that between this 7,2+ billion people there exist for sure stupid people that are borderline crazy or worst.

The internet is connecting them and gives them a plattform to create their ridiculous fantasies.
