© Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2019.The theory of modernization states that the distinctive feature of modern world view is its emphasis on progress. It argues that prior stage in the historical development continuum is more primitive than the next stage. Religious assumptions can provide necessary motivation and reasons to give up and/or limit desires for consumption goods and experiences. This function can also be true for recent period. However, religious authorities have many barriers to realize this function. The process of modernity influenced both religious beliefs and religious practices. However, religion sociologists argue that such changes have mostly occurred in social domains and that individual religious experiences have not been affected by these changes. The commodification of religion from modern society to postmodern consumption culture was discussed in this chapter.
