Cons and Pros of Practicing Religion Online

I believe there can be benefits to practicing religion online. It can be a time saver. Many people do not consider 

religion a top priority due to time limits or scheduling. If one is too busy, or simply does not have enough time 

practicing religion online can be the perfect outlet. However, there can be limitations and disadvantages to 

practicing religion online. Firstly, there is no sense of community or opportunity to bond with others through an 

online religious outlet. The experience is not the same as sitting in an actual church with family and friends 

around you. There is no chance for religious connections. Experiencing religion alone is very different from an 

experience with people of a common interest.
