摘要

这篇文章考察了剑桥大学13位“参加”虚拟服务的参与者的在线敬拜体验。我们的重点是一个在线正式的圣餐服务和一个更非正式的周日晚上非圣餐服务。在概述了关于网络宗教的文献之后,更具体地说,是虚拟宗教社区的可能性和在线圣餐的表现,我们提供了半结构化访谈的数据,这些数据通过主题分析进行了分析。访谈显示,虚拟服务虽然聊胜于无,但在参与、归属感和所产生的宗教体验方面有很大的局限性。虽然只有两位嘉宾认为虚拟服务比现场服务好,但大多数嘉宾认为虚拟服务缺乏连系感。然而,每个人都同意它在几个重要的方面不同于电视广播。总的观点是,在网上庆祝圣餐是不可能的,因为会众不能真正分享由牧师祝福的面包和酒,这对他们来说是仪式的一个重要方面。对大多数人来说,既没有精神上的圣餐,也没有远距离的奉献信仰,这让他们觉得自己并没有真正参与圣餐。在这项研究中,既在早上参加圣餐仪式,又在晚上参加非圣餐仪式的参与者似乎更喜欢后者。这项研究的数据与不同信仰的研究一致,这些研究揭示了身体存在、接触和联系对仪式有效性的重要性。

Religious worship online: A qualitative study of two Sunday virtual services
This article examines the experience of online worship among 13 participants ‘attending’ virtual services in Cambridge. We focus upon an online formal Eucharistic service and a more informal Sunday evening non-Eucharistic service. After providing an overview of the literature on online religion, more specifically the possibility of a virtual religious community and the performance of online Eucharist, we present data from semi-structured interviews which were analysed through thematic analysis. The interviews reveal that virtual services, while better than nothing, have significant limitations in terms of participation, belonging, and the kind of religious experience engendered. While only two participants expressed the view that the virtual service was better than the live service, the majority found that the virtual service lacked a sense of connectedness. However, everyone agreed that it was different from a television broadcast in several important ways. The overall view was that celebrating the Eucharist was not possible online, because congregants could not actually partake of the bread and wine blessed by the priest which, for them, was an essential aspect of the ritual. For most people there was neither spiritual communion, nor a belief in consecration at a distance, leaving them feeling they were not really participating in the Eucharist. The participants in the study who engaged with both the Eucharist in the morning and the non-Eucharistic service in the evening generally seem to have preferred the latter. The data from this study are congruent with studies of diverse faiths which reveal the perceived importance of physical presence, contact and connection as being important for ritual effectiveness.
