Resumen:
The expansion of Christian religions such as the Pentecostal, Adventist, and Baptist churches in Latin America has profited not only mass media but also a vertically integrated network of cultural industries, to facilitate the propagation of faith. Belief and adhesion become partially independent from presence. This modality of communicating religion through mass media has enabled the introduction of the universe of New Age beliefs. The New Age cultivates its relationship with cultural industries; given that it lacks structural, institutional devices for its propagation, the extension of its beliefs is carried out through a generic dissemination movement that the media amplifies.
