Abstract
Second Life as one of Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games (MMORPGs) allowed users to create things. One of the areas is religion. USATODAY and the Christian Post reported that Leaders of Christian, Jewish and Muslim sites estimate about 1,000 avatars teleport into churches, synagogues or mosques on a regular basis while hundreds more list themselves with Buddhist, Pagan, Wiccan and other groups [1, 2]. This study explored users' experiences inside the religious site in Second Life.
