Will mass collaboration change religion?

Sounds a little lofty to me, but this is not the first time ideas like this have come across our radar. Faithful bloggers around the world have been discussing the ideas explored in Wikinomics and wondering about the implications for their respective institutions. Here’s one from Cynthia Ware:

The 2007 book by Don Tapscott & Anthony D. Williams, Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything, explores collaboration and the theory that mass collaboration from participants in the online community creates open systems that produce faster and more powerful results than the traditional closed proprietary systems that have been the norm for private industry and educational institutions. Historically, this would also include the Church.

If peering, sharing, and open-source thinking become the norm and collaboration emerges as the dominant paradigm of our era, how will our faith communities reflect and respond to this new world?
