According to Emile Durkheim in his definition of religion, he said, "Religion is a social fact, social institution, and thingification." He said religion is the power of the society and anything that has the power of bringing people together is called religion.
In the light of the above, since anything that has the power of bringing people together is religion. Therefore, Social media is the religion of the 21st century because it is a culture, a way of life and it has the strong power of bringing people together as a social solidarity and harmonious living.

I agree! It's also simply amazing how quickly the masses have become dependent and radical upon this new religion. One thing to note, is that this religion is comprised of both good and bad sects. One sect offers the world, but bleeds you of your privacy and rights...while the other offers you opportunity, is transparent, modifiable, and sharable. The bad is proprietary software(facebook, google, and the likes) while the good is what's known as "Foss"(Free and Open Source Software). I implore you to delve deeper and make this new religion work for you instead of against you.

Thoughtful reply that shed more light to my reasoning. You open my sight to angles that I never think before. You made mention of bad sects that hide under the umbrella of this religion. Not only that, you also talk about the good one that characterized by opportunity, transparency among other.
This assertion establishes the fact that just like the way people use the name of religion to carry out dreadful acts exactly this religion of 21st century is being used for dreadful purpose and the vice versa. Thanks for your sound and meaningful comment.
