Abstract

This paper deals with the characteristics of religious responses of Christian Science and Scientology in the post-COVID19 era, analyzing the strengthening of their online document communication and transmission. The World Health Organization gives the COVID19 prevention guidelines to religious leaders and faith-based organizations. Religions play important roles in making peaceful and practical bridges among socially marginalized people by social distancing and isolated environments. In the late 18th century, Christian Science was founded by Mary Baker Eddy. Christian Science pays attention to the ideas of God, Christ, and the Bible, adding Eddy's works to sacred scriptures and emphasizing the importance of spiritual healing through prayer and reading. Is the Middle Is the 20 of the In THcentury, Scientology was founded by Ron Hubbard, who wrote many science fiction novels. Through the process of psychological counseling, so-called auditing, auditors help pre-clear people to reach the happy and clear level of the Thetan. In the post-COVID19 era, Christian Science and Scientology are focusing on non-face-to-face online document missions instead of face-to-face services and meetings. Christian Science emphasizes the spiritual healing and the power of prayer, but Scientology argues that preclear people are able to reach a clear stage by using the skills of psychotherapy. In conclusion, new religions propose spiritual dimensions as alternative ways against the physical and medical way of modern science in order to investigate the cause of disease and recover health
