2. Religion spread its message
beyond frontiers while
globalization with its
homogenization can disturb
cultures wherein some religions
opposed and some people might
seek protection from the impacts
of globalization and foster
opposition.
3. It is important to note that
globalization does not lead
necessarily to a homogenization
of groups and the rise of a
universal community, because
there is a desire for esteem
within a culture.
5. Each religions has
secularized in its own
distinctive way, which has
resulted in its own
distinctive secular outcome.
Even if globalization
increases secularization, it
does not bring one common
worldview.
6. As counter-movement to US-
globalization, Islam revivalists and
developing neo-Confucianism that
promote Asian values. Great religions
see the globalization led by the US
closely connected to secularization and
therefore as threat to themselves.
Special in the world view is
Protestantism as it rejects hierarchy and
community and any intermediaries
between the individual and God in
contrast to most other religions.
