Welcome! At Signs and Wonders we sift through the World Wide Web looking for evidence of emerging religious futures. Our mission is to provide our readers -- religious futurists, ministers, and just plain spiritual people -- with a guided tour of the web, stopping wherever we see the future of faith unfolding before our eyes. We update this site every three days or so, so come back again and join us on our next trip. If you want to comment on anything you read here or discuss religious futures in general, come over to our forum. |

Supporters look to the sites as the next step toward the democratization of religion. Detractors believe these spiritual web malls will commercialize, dilute, and "menu-ize" traditional faith. editor -- Supports a trend toward religious pluralism in the U.S. and developed nations. How the web will affect religion is still a key uncertainty. That it will profoundly affect religion, at least in developed nations, is not. |
