New religious movements

Religija je uvijek bila važan dio naše kulture. Možemo se složiti da je religija oduvijek igrala važnu ulogu u povijesti čovječanstva. Napretkom tehnologije i mijenjanjem čovjekovog pogleda na svijet i sama se religija mijenjala i neprestano „usavršavala.“ Tako su se početkom 20. stoljeća (pa i ranije) počeli javljati novi pokreti i sljedbe. U zadnja tri desetljeća 20. stoljeća u zapadnim zemljama pojavio duhovni pokret pod nazivom New Age, koji se zalagao za odbacivanje dotadašnjih religijskih dogmi. Kršćanstvo, islam i judaizam smatraju se najvećim i najrasprostranjenijim religijama na svijetu. Ipak, ne možemo, a da se ne zapitamo: hoće li, u budućnosti neka nova religija preuzeti glavnu ulogu i baciti neku od ove tri u drugi plan? Hoće li New Age u potpunosti prevladati i potisnuti tradicije i običaje stare nekoliko tisuća godina?Religion has always been the big part of our culture. We can all agree that religion has always played an important role in the history of mankind. By advancing technology and changing the world's view of man, religion itself changed and continually "perfected." Thus, at the beginning of the 20th century (and earlier) new movements, sequences and some new alternative religions and beliefs began to emerge. In the last three decades of the twentieth century in Western countries, a spiritual movement called New Age emerged, forcing the rejection of former religious dogmas. Christianity, Islam and Judaism are considered to be the largest and most widespread religions in the world. However, we still need to ask ourselves: However, we can not but not ask: will any new religion in the future take on the lead and throw one of these three into another plan? Will New Age completely overcome and suppress the traditions and customs of the old millennium
