[Liam]

It would be appropriate to discuss about the influence of social media on our religious beliefs. Faith brings virtue into the social media and it should change the way people create, distribute and consume information. But is it a good thing? can social media make us find people with the same views as us or does it make things worse?

So I believe that social media has both benefits and drawbacks where our religious beliefs are concerned. On the one hand, it helps us in meeting the people of the same faith. On the same note, it makes us vulnerable to receiving wrong information and different opinions that are likely to cause confusion.

In theory faith brings virtue, but in practical point of view, deep faith in religion is burgeoning fanaticism in our society, and social media is giving air to this fire.

We need to be very careful about the sources we subscribe to on our social media. I'm view of this, I have learnt to constructively disagree with other people’s opinions. In this way, we can not be easily swayed by other people's beliefs.

constructively disagree

That's a good point. If you want to create a meaningful dialogue in any topics and any theories, including religion., you are free to disagree but you should disagree for the sake of disagreement. You need a strong point to disagree.

Social media has been actively trying to push religious narratives so much. It has really brought light and made people conscious of the religious practices of religions that were previously oblivion and making them more popular in the process.

Many things about the various religions are being shared on social media. This makes people get to know about certain beliefs they had no clue about. But we have to be careful! Some information may be even misleading and inaccurate.

There are so many churches today that streams their church services online. Personally, I find it absurd because I still believe in going to church to worship on Sundays.

I don't think I would ever replace church service with online streaming services.

Social media has a profound impact on religious beliefs, both positive and negative. The rapid sharing of information can encourage religious dialogue, but it can also amplify extremism or superficial engagement with faith.

I don't pay any attention to whatever I see on social media sites about religion because a lot of people can put out controversial opinion to stir things up. Religion is a delicate thing you can't take serious.
