Welcome to the Wikiversity Division of New Age Religions, part of the School of Theology and the Division of Religious Studies.

Most New Age Religions are not scientific, but they often try to embrace, adapt and incorporate elements of modern scientific theories into their beliefs. This is in contrast to older religions that were formed before the era of modern science.

[edit] Subdivisions and Departments

Like divisions, subdivisions and departments are pages in the Topic namespace) and their names start with the "Topic:" prefix. Individual departments can be used by multiple schools. Schools that use (link to) the same department should cooperate to develop the department. Subdivisions are used by large divisions to help organize related departments. Not all divisions have subdivisions. If you need a subdivision in your division, you can use the Template:Subdivision boilerplate template to start a subdivision.
