I've put together a handful of NT Theology Thesis topics related to the theme “Pop-culture in the City of Faith”, subject to terms and conditions.

Currently, only six proposed topics are on the table, and these are exclusively for students who have successfully matriculated into the Masters program after completing M1, M2, M3, and are focusing their research on topics connected to media, education, and culture.

To put it simply, these topics are only open to those researching areas such as: LGBTQ issues, the Woke Virus, Same Sex Marriage, Pornography, Abortion, IVF & bioethical matters, Euthanasia, drugs, poverty, divorce, gambling addiction or sex work, among others. They are not available for research in non-culture-related areas.

As detailed in the syllabus, these “Pop-culture in the City of Faith” topics are tied into the broader 151, 161, 171 Wisdom module, which looks at “fatherlessness” as both cause and effect, and sits at the intersection of ethics, spiritual formation, and ancient hostilities.

We can explore the most effective way to organize these (proposed) thesis topics—perhaps with a straightforward Google document that all registered ORCID researchers can share.

You'll find a list of Thesis topics for researchers with a NT major in Theology concentrating on modern forms of slavery (music, pornography, gambling, sex work, anti-human trafficking, etc) at the link below. The aim isn't to limit creativity, but to inspire higher-level design thinking within these specific areas:

Swifties in Social Media

  1. The Impact of Pop Culture on Religious Practices in Urban Settings: This is an in-depth examination of modern worship rituals influenced by popular culture and the way these influences are shaping contemporary religious practices. The study will delve into how trends in music, film, and fashion are intermingling with religious customs, subsequently transforming how urban societies interpret and practice their faith.
  2. A Comprehensive Comparative Study of Pop-Culture Influences on Faith-Based Communities in Major Cities: This study aims to provide an in-depth understanding of the complex interplay between secular entertainment and religious observance. It will analyze its influence on the dynamics of urban faith communities, investigating how popular culture can both challenge and reinforce traditional religious norms in metropolitan areas.
  3. Pop-Culture and its Pivotal Role in Shaping Religious Identity in Metro Cities: This research will offer a detailed and rigorous analysis of how popular culture influences personal faith and belief systems in urban areas. It will also explore the implications for the future of religion in cities, considering how pop culture may continue to shape religious identity in an increasingly secularized urban environment.
  4. The Resurgence of Pagan Practices in the Global Village: This ethnographic examination will explore the interplay between Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI) and traditional faith systems in modern societies. With a focus on the revival and mainstreaming of pagan beliefs, the study will investigate how these ancient practices are finding relevance and acceptance in today's diverse cultural landscape.
  5. The Influence of Same Sex Marriages (SSM) and the Gay-Lesbian Lobby on the Resurgence of Pagan Practices: This sociocultural analysis will examine the shift from pro-family norms in conservative societies and the impact of the LGBT movement on traditional religious practices. It will discuss how the growing acceptance of same-sex marriages is challenging religious orthodoxy and sparking a resurgence in pagan practices.
  6. A Comparative Study of Deviant Sub-cultures and the Family-friendly Agenda: This critical examination will scrutinise the role and impact of pagan practices in conservative societies upholding monogamous traditions. It will particularly emphasise on the interface between sub-culture movements and established family structures, shedding light on how subcultures can both disrupt and reinforce dominant family norms.
