Modern religion is the news sites we follow, the tv shows, the movies, songs, gadgets, and games.
And political parties, economic theories, political correctness, The Path to the Only Truthtm, positive thinking, white supremacy, feminism, conspiracies, Apple; apparently people need something to be religious about, as long as it doesn't take too much thinking or other effort. Some are even religious about atheism. It's tragic, but interesting to observe.
I round those under the spectrum of the news sites and social media since more or less they used to exist before hand. Today we gave the power to a few sources to dictate what we learn, what we think and what we believe. The belief system of them media has fractured into many "heresies" but still it holds the same structure as any other religion.
It is quite interesting to observe indeed. Afterall we are humans. Nothing really changes dramatically
