Virtualization of Religious Life and the Apocalyptic Society (Sociological Analysis)

Abstract


The post-modern transformation of society painfully impacted religion. In this case, the religious mainstream changes drastically. Accordingly, mass culture becomes dominant in post-modern society. Rejection of “the great narratives” – and religion is one type of such great narratives, - entailed desacralization of religion and caused virtualization and profanation of the religious life which resulted in the cynical and contemptuous attitude to the radiational religious life, etc. All the stated, according to religious interpretation are signs of the apocalyptic society. In this case, the issue concerning the role of religion in the socius of this type becomes actual. And it is the main issue in this sociological sketch.
