Celebrity_Vs._Religion

Celebrity Vs. Religion Has Celebrity Replaced Religion in Society' Religion has been around forever. It was formed to explain the unexplainable, and lasted through countless revolutions and discoveries, giving the people who followed the support needed to go about each day. Recently, people who attain celebrity status can gain quite a big following. These groups of people will often look up to, and possibly idolize or worship the celebrities, seeing them as above the regular human being. This has, in turn, prompted the debate of whether celebrity has replaced religion in society. To this, I feel it has not. The first thing that comes to my mind when I think of this question is the amount of people that follow a specific religion. I usually think of Christianity because of its widespread belief and popularity. The number of people who worship celebrities is far less than the people who attend church on Sunday’s, and when other religions are considered, the ratio is practically laughable. Granted, the ratio is becoming less and less desirable, but the fact is that religion is still alive and strong. Another reason I feel that religion hasn’t been replaced by celebrity is the reasoning people, religion, celebrities, celebrity, good, spotlight, worship, replaced, looking, lives, live, feel, society, less, following, wrong, way, think, strong, same, replace, reason, ratio, offer, mistakes, make, life, help, follow, faith, fact, eventually, class, belief, been
