Abstract

South Africa has recently experienced a new religious vitality. Apparently, select Pentecostal-style preachers are embracing syncretic technologies and discourses. These blatantly counter-biblical narratives are heavily charged with aspirations to decolonize the pulpit and reclaim African spiritualities and reform mentalities. Forbidden practices of ancestor worship have emerged as important accommodations to express African methodologies of spirituality, cosmology, and thought. The play examines a preacher from South Africa who brazenly promotes this shunned accommodation. Prophet Magejageja re-articulates biblical textuality to traverse a decolonial horizon. The preacher knowingly commits doctrinal suicide by contradicting his Pentecostal theological heritage in order to promote something religiously innovative. The preacher encourages a return to the past, even though Pentecostalism enthusiastically calls for a break with the past because of evil and retrogressive associations with the past. Four YouTube sermons are linguistically examined using thematic critical discourse analysis with the aim of elucidating the preacher's decolonially charged pulpit language tropes. Key findings reveal entanglements of multiple ideological discourses: Post-Christianity, Afrocentrism, Counter-Pentecostalism, Missionary Critique, Black Consciousness, Pan-Africanism, Black physical liberation, anti-inferiority complexes, and counter-narratives to Western oppression in Africa. His syncretistic register undoubtedly underscores that the new media facilitate the possibility of undermining the insidious life of the coloniality of power.

Abstract

The prevalence of online gambling among college students is increasing due to its accessibility and the significant influence of the social environment. One important element that can both encourage and discourage people from participating in this activity is peer groups. Previous research has tended to focus on only one aspect of peer group influence, and there aren't many studies that thoroughly address the multiple roles that peers play in students' online gambling decisions. Using Albert Bandura's social learning theory, this study attempts to examine how peer group social dynamics influence college students' online gambling behaviors. Using a qualitative approach, this study conducted in-depth interviews with 28 Islamic university students from different social contexts and observed their online gambling activities. The results showed that students in the peer group who gambled experienced a process of observation, retention, reproduction, and social reinforcement that increased their engagement. In contrast, students in the non-gambling peer group received negative reinforcement and social support to refrain from the behavior. These findings support the importance of peer-based prevention strategies. Therefore, campuses and stakeholders need to strengthen student communities that instill anti-gambling values and provide positive and educational alternative activities.
