Utilizing contemporary scholarship on secularization, individualism, and consumer capitalism, this book explores religious movements founded in the West which are intentionally fictional: Discordianism, the Church of All Worlds, the Church of the SubGenius, and Jediism. Their continued appeal and success, principally in America but gaining wider audience through the 1980s and 1990s, is chiefly as a result of underground publishing and the internet. This book deals with immensely popular subject matter: Jediism developed from George Lucas' Star Wars films; the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, founded by 26-year-old student Bobby Henderson in 2005 as a protest against the teaching of Intelligent Design in schools; Discordianism and the Church of the SubGenius which retain strong followings and participation rates among college students. The Church of All Worlds' focus on Gaia theology and environmental issues makes it a popular focus of attention. The continued success of these groups of Invented Religions provide a unique opportunity to explore the nature of late/post-modern religious forms, including the use of fiction as part of a bricolage for spirituality, identity-formation, and personal orientation.
'Carole Cusack’s Invented Religions is a thoroughly enjoyable and informative romp through six new religions about which most people - including scholars in the field - will know little. Solidly sociologically grounded, the author succeeds not only in uncovering a dynamic that distinguishes much contemporary Paganism from its more established competitors but also possibly the deliberate narrative spirit behind all religion itself. Seeking to broaden an understanding of religion that is commensurate to the twenty-first century, Cusack expands the prevailing Western model based on Christianity to one that concerns eclecticism, individualism, consumerism, secularization, environmentalism, sexual liberation, feminism and meaning per se and includes the possibility of parody, irreverence, anarchic humour and blatant fiction.' Michael York, Bath Spa University, UK 'Invented Religions is a refreshingly original and delightful book that throws new light on invented traditions, religious legitimacy, religious creativity, and the ludic dimensions of religion.' James Lewis, University of Tromso, Norway 'From followers of filmmaker George Lucas’ Jedis to worshippers of Eris, the goddess of Discord, Cusack takes seriously the richly imagined worlds of contemporary invented religions. She convincingly argues that religions of humor and parody created from science fiction narratives are worthy of our attention as quintessential religious movements of late capitalism.' Sarah M. Pike, author of New Age and Neopagan Religions in America 'Cusack has provided us with a valuable resource to draw upon in further analysis of these new religions.' Alternative Spirituality and Religion Review 'This engaging study brings to light the ways that facets of popular culture can metamorphose into belief systems with their own rituals and structures. It is suitable for a broad readership interested in popular culture and religion, new religious movements, and alternative religions. Summing
