Abstract
Abstract Many talk about the profound change religion is undergoing. A good part of this change is due to digitization. With regard to religion, “change” could be perceived as a paradox though. By its very nature, religion has been conceived as unchangeable because related to an ultimate, invariable source. Technology and digitization suggest, by their nature, the exact opposite: rapid change and “total” innovation with few inhibitions. So is the current dawn of a “digitized religion” a contradiction in itself, just a fake, a business model—or more?
