New Religious Movements and Spirituality

• Review the sources in the Instructor Insights
• What are new religious movements and why are they happening?
• What is "spirituality"? Why are people claiming to be spiritual and not religious?
• I claim that New Religious Movements and today's "Spirituality" are just reinventions of old religions. What do you think of that and why?
• And, of course, can you name some celebrities from these categories?
