The Future of Religions from a Universal View

Abstract:

Along the history, religion was one of the important and essential matters with concern to the humanity. And the phenomenon of keeping away from religion is considered one of the new phenomenons which crystallized inEurope in the nineteenth century as a reaction to the religious authorities in the middle centuries which was known as “secularism”, whereas the social scholars at that century believed in disappearing religion or at least separating it from the social life.
But in the twentieth century, religion became fully developed, and revived again, the matter which caused the social scholars to review their thoughts about it, and none of them believed in disappearing religion any more, on the contrary thinkers believe that religions became closer to each other because of the successive universal developments, which help to reinforce the moral sides and weaken the behaviorism sides.
The writer of this article distinguished between prediction and prospecting using the known ways, and he expects as the common culture relationships got closer as the religions get closer with regard to their content, and this approaching doesn’t mean the unity but it reinforce the nominal differences, and the different communities are going to know their identity on the base of religion, since the universal changes are going to weaken the role of nationality, geography, and language during reforming the identity of communities. While the identity is considered from the essential needs, the religion is the only element that reinforces the identity.
It is probably we are going to face the radical people who keep their habits and customs without any need to return their jobs.
Positively, theses changes are going to be before achieving the Universal community of Imam Mehdi, and it will be an introduction to the appearance of the savior of humanity (our souls sacrifice his coming).
