Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of the problem of religion as an institution and “religious capital” in the aspect of accumulating freedom of its accumulation and increasing the efficiency of its use. Religion is a special system of social institutions that allows people to explain and respond to what they find supernatural and sacred. Religious capital consists of ideas, dogmas, beliefs that the believer owns as his property. There are three vectors of increasing freedom, which can be associated with the accumulation of spiritual religious capital and intellectual property of the believer. In relation to the problem of “efficiency”, as a rule, the principle applies: the higher the level of freedom, the higher the efficiency of the use of religious capital.
