intrigued by technology, believed a virtual community could express “traditional Benedictine hospitality in contemporary form [3].” The sisters launched a website that dispenses spiritual teachings via podcasts and videos, hosts conferences, sponsors online retreats, offers a prayer line, and allows participants to “converse” with the nuns.

The relationship between digital communication and spiritual progress is similarly a both/ and proposition. As Sr. Wybourne notes, the gift of layered, instantaneous, global communication affords new possibilities for spiritual engagement.

Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 77
Although scholars and religious leaders once wondered [16] if virtual religion would undermine real-life religious communities, the contrary is true: Practitioners supplement their real-world religious affiliations with virtual activities, including study, journaling and prayer. Commercialization, too, is a complex phenomenon as Mara Einstein argues in Brands of Faith: Marketing Religion in a Commercial

In “The Internet is Not Killing Organized Religion [24] ,”Elizabeth Drescher writes, “At the end of the day, that is, it is not so much “the culture”—digital culture, secular culture—that is driving young people from churches, it is religious culture itself.”
Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 130
The challenges that beset us in this realm are not, primarily technological. They are personal. They are us. In the context of digital communications, indeed with regard to any instance of the New, spirituality is a heightened case of human activity, not a special class.
