[[File:Irreligion and Internet Average.png|thumb|Internet religion spead]]

Through the ages [[priest]]s were the keepers of [[knowledge]], as religions were the only source of it for most people. Religion was also the major source of [[news]] and the means to control the common people. One religion came after another together with changes to [[society]] and its [[technology]]. So the new one comes.

As the number of [[literate]] people increases following the general increase of population and the [[normal distribution]] of the [[IQ]]s. As increases the number of people, who have more time to [[educate]] themselves instead of working all day long to barely feed themselves. Old religious forms become obsolete. At least for them.

To find the new religion, we have to look at what this ''[[Brave New World]]'' worships. Find which place except of work these people visit. Every day. Something like a [[temple]], a [[church]]. Or maybe some [[idol]] they worship.

This new source of knowledge, of news, and ultimately control came in the forms of a [[book]], a [[newspaper]], a [[radio]] [[broadcast]], then [[television]] and finally all these [[internets]], which encompassed every single new idol from [[computer game]]s to [[pop singer]]s.

So, when identified, easy to calculate the spread. [[The Gallup Organization|Gallup]] managed to ask people, do they have this new idol at home... But as in any transition period we would be also interested, where the traditional religions yet hold the ground. And thankfully Gallup again provides us with information, asking if [traditional] religion plays an important role in peoples' lives.

No surprise, the new religion has more spread, where the society, the technology or plainly [[civilization]] is more advanced. Yet we can see some undecided regions, like the [[US]] where the new and old religions overlap, creating a potential for a conflict, and [[PRC]] where the potential for the new idol spread is not yet exhausted.

A [[IQ and Global Inequality|certain level]] of intelligence for a person to accept the new religion would be required. I would call those who qualify [[white people]] for convenience, not meaning the skin color at all. Almost.

I am trying to study spirit in all things, and in particular human soul, which manifests itself through intellect, of which emotion is only a part. I believe synthesis of mystical and materialistic approaches to be imminent.

Internet Religion

Internet religion spead

Through the ages priests were the keepers of knowledge, as religions were the only source of it for most people. Religion was also the major source of news and the means to control the common people. One religion came after another together with changes to society and its technology. So the new one comes.

As the number of literate people increases following the general increase of population and the normal distribution of the IQs. As increases the number of people, who have more time to educate themselves instead of working all day long to barely feed themselves. Old religious forms become obsolete. At least for them.

To find the new religion, we have to look at what this Brave New World worships. Find which place except of work these people visit. Every day. Something like a temple, a church. Or maybe some idol they worship.

This new source of knowledge, of news, and ultimately control came in the forms of a book, a newspaper, a radio broadcast, then television and finally all these internets, which encompassed every single new idol from computer games to pop singers.

So, when identified, easy to calculate the spread. Gallup managed to ask people, do they have this new idol at home... But as in any transition period we would be also interested, where the traditional religions yet hold the ground. And thankfully Gallup again provides us with information, asking if [traditional] religion plays an important role in peoples' lives.

No surprise, the new religion has more spread, where the society, the technology or plainly civilization is more advanced. Yet we can see some undecided regions, like the US where the new and old religions overlap, creating a potential for a conflict, and PRC where the potential for the new idol spread is not yet exhausted.

A certain level of intelligence for a person to accept the new religion would be required. I would call those who qualify white people for convenience, not meaning the skin color at all. Almost.
