Resumo: |
Would there be a differentiated feeling of belonging among the followers of the Brazilian Protestant digital religiosity? This research investigates a new type of feeling of belonging due to the influence of digital social media as a new element to be understood in Protestant Christian religiosity. Our hypothesis was the possibility that there was some change in the feeling of belonging of the participants of digital religiosity in the Brazilian Protestant church. Such a phenomenon would be a consequence of the change in behavior in times of network society, with its fragmented authorized religious memory, whose symbols have undergone resignifications, creating an environment conducive to changes and new religious experiments, producing individuals who cause ruptures, without necessarily losing their links with the fundamental elements of religion. Our goal is to understand the phenomenon of adherents of Christian Protestantism in the digital environment and their differentiated way of experiencing their religious experiences in a fluid, ambivalent, diverse, interstitial and border space, and to propose a new concept of belonging that contemplates this phenomenon. For that, we worked four chapters in a progressive and interdependent way, giving the text coherence so that our hypothesis could be answered. In the first chapter, we carried out a bibliographic-historical survey of academic research on the topic of Religion and the Internet to situate the reader about the current state of this field of studies. In the second chapter, we address the new identities and new belongings arising from modernity, according to Giddens (2002, 2018), Elias (1998), Santos (2013), Beck (2018) and Bauman (2016, 2018), we highlight the importance symbols for religion, and the fragmentation of authorized religious memory (Hervieu-Léger, 2000). In the third chapter we use concepts of “timeless time”, “space of flows” and “real virtuality” coming from the network society (Castells, 2000a), emphasizing ruptures and resignifications of a more symbolic digital religiosity (Asad, 1993), differentiated in relation to the archaic societies of Eliade (1991, 2010, 2016). Finally, in chapter four, we present elements of the modern human been identity from Hall (2015), the current religious “bricolage” (Hervieu-Léger, 2015), and the post-colonial theories of Mignolo (2000), Santiago ( 2013) and Bhabha (2013), and we return to the theoretical framework of Castells (2000a, 2000b, 2010) of chapter three, showing that there are historical convergences with the questions proposed by the participants of the digital Protestant religiosity, in their interval and hybrid moment of living and alternative religious experience. We used as a case study the Descrentes.com.br community to identify in this digital community what this new form of belonging would be. In conclusion, based on the concept of in-between (Santiago, 2013) we identify an alternative identity under construction and a differentiated religious belonging, the between-belonging, which would not yet be properly identified, due to its fluid, innovative and alternative characteristic to the religious established system. |
