The Catholic RevolutionNew Wine, Old Wineskins, and the Second Vatican Council
How, a mere generation after Vatican Council II initiated the biggest reform since the Reformation, can the Catholic Church be in such deep trouble? The question resonates throughout this book. A timely and much-needed review of forty years of Church history, the book offers a genuinely new interpretation of the complex and radical shift in American Catholic attitudes since the second Vatican Council (1962–1965). Drawing on a wealth of data colle…

The future of religion in America
The Demographic Imperative in Religious Change in the United States
U.S. Protestants are less likely to belong to “mainline” denominations and more likely to belong to “conservative” ones than used to be the case. Evidence from the General Social Survey indicates that higher fertility and earlier childbearing among women from conservative denominations explains 76% of the observed trend for cohorts born between 1903 and 1973: conservative denominations have grown their own. Mainline decline would have slowed in r…
The tilted playing field
A “more general”; theory is proposed speculatively for the sociological study of religion which combines narrative theory, socialization theory, and rational choice theory. The first describes what religion is, the second how it is passed on, and the third why there is a propensity for adults to remain in the religious culture of their childhood. This theory helps to account for the remarkable durability of religion and religious affiliation and …

Coleman Revisited
The late James Coleman's concept of social capital has been misused in the current debate about the alleged decline of civic and ethical concern in America. Social capital, as Coleman defined it, is a potentiality that inheres in social structures and is not a dependent variable. It is a resource, available in social structures, that facilitates actors who wish to seek certain goals and as such is neither good nor bad. Coleman's concept is a usef…

Religion and Attitudes toward the Environment
This essay is an attempt to expand a study reported in 1989 of the relationship between religion and concern for the environment in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Here, only one variable was used, willingness to spend money on the environment, but findings were based on a national data set. Low levels of environmental concern correlate with a biblical literalism. They also correlate with being Christian and with confidence in the existence of God. On the other…

Protestant and Catholic
The notion of the Protestant Ethic is reconceptualized to reflect theoretical expectations about the difference between the Dialectical Imagination and the Analogical Imagination. Protestants are expected to be individualist because of an imagination of society as sinful and God-forsaken. Catholics are expected to be communitarian because of an imagination of society as sacramental, that is, revelatory of God. The research question is whether the…
A Religious Revival in Russia
Data collected in a multistage probability sample of Russian-speaking citizens of the Russian Federation in the spring and summer of 1991 (as part of the International Social Survey Program's study of Religion) indicate a substantial increase in religious belief and affiliation in the Federation. A third of the Russian people who said they once did not believe in God now do believe in God - 22% of all Russians. There has also been a substantial a…

The Protestant Ethic
American sociologists continue to use the Protestant Ethic hypothesis as a theoretical framework in studying the presumed differences between Catholics and Protestants in this country. However, a review of recent studies indicates that this hypothesis is anything but fruitful. It is suggested that the survival of the Protestant Ethic as a testable theory is due to a misunderstanding of Weber, an oversimplification of history, an ignorance of the …
