Globalization is defined as the network and growth of previously local products, beliefs, and
practices into universal products, beliefs, and practices, often via the use of technology.
Religion is a set of cultural systems, belief systems, and worldviews that establish symbols that
connect humans to spirituality and moral principles.
Globalization fosters a pluralistic culture, in which religions "with overlapping but separate
ethics and agendas" interact. As a result of this, globalization highlights the reality that, because
faiths share similar principles, none of them is "right" and hence changeable.
Religion and globalization have always had a tense and tumultuous relationship. Globalization
means more frequent and daily communication, and religions are growing more self-aware of
their status as world faiths.
Religions that were formerly isolated from one another can now have regular and unavoidable
contact as a result of globalization. Because religions share comparable values, globalization
highlights this truth.
Direction: Name at least 10 religions and give their origin and at least 1 set of BELIEFS.
