The function of religion in a globalized society?

[dead man]

although the general trend throughout history may suggest otherwise, i don't think religion will ever globally consolidate the way popular culture or politics or technology will. regardless of a push in that direction to meet an agenda of any kind. there is a nonzero chance but if there were 2 men alive on earth, they are very likely to disagree on an ideal belief system.

the world is becoming 'smaller' and more connective but obviously still extremely divided ideologically. which is a good thing. there are many benefits to globalization but this would not be one of them. if anything i would say globalization is a danger to the cultural function of religion, not vice versa.
