A rational-spiritual model of religiosity

Experience of change in the modern world, while it has certain communalities with the experience of change in the pre-modern world, has its own unique characteristics. This difference is due to three major characteristics: speed of change, domain of change and depth of change. In the modern world, all aspects of life, including religiosity, have been subject to change. In this paper, the writer presents a model for religiosity that is compatible with the requirements of life in the modern world. This is a rational-spiritual model, which the writer discuses under three headings: explanatory principles, basic characteristics and the general conditions. In the first section, the writer argues four factors, each of which shows one aspect of the necessity of such a model for the modern world. In the second section, the writer introduces truth, order and rationality as three basic characteristics of the model. In the third section, the writer discuses eleven conditions as the general conditions of this model. The writer concludes by saying that this model is very efficient in the modern world.
