Question

What is sociology of god?

Answer 1

A sociology of god is an investigation into how particular society's and culture's think and utilise the idea of god. For example, how does an advanced western society educate and depict religion in schools, cinema, soap opera's, book's and even video games. How do certain sub-cultures blue-collar, white-collar, black, chinese, young/old, male/female feel and think and react to the idea of a god. Soc of god also looks into the social structures and traditions of established religions and groups. Basically it is the investigation of groups of like-minded individuals in a social context, rather than the psychology of the individual or research into theology itself.

Hope this helps!
