Informal Pew-Renting and Pew-Openers in English Anglican Churches
As opposed to formal pew-renting, which characterised less affluent Anglican churches in England, wealthier churches often used informal pew-renting. In this form, congregants were expected to “tip” pew-openers—themselves generally from the working class—a sixpence, shilling or half-a-crown, to obtain favourable seating for a single service. But the “tips” were actually bribes, and according to popular descriptions, pew-openers frequently relegat…
The Demise and—Eventual—Death of Formal Anglican Pew-Renting in England
Under the Church Building Acts beginning in 1818, new English Anglican churches received governmental approval to formally rent sittings to congregants. Initial profits seem to have been high enough to make the practice financially viable. But over the Victorian era a flurry of popular protests and governmental acts, combined with lower rates of church-going, reduced the profitability of pew-renting. Churches built under the auspices of the Churc…
How Formal Anglican Pew-Renting Worked in Practice, 1800–1950
Before the early nineteenth century pew-renting was comparatively rare in Anglican churches, and where it existed the practice was generally administered as a less serious means of fund-raising. But just before 1800 or so, methods of administering the letting of sittings became more businesslike and impersonal. The frequency of pew-renting grew exponentially with the advent of the Church Building Acts beginning in 1818, but the profits realised w…
The Injustice of Nonjudicial Remedies to Address Childhood Violence
The hypothesis that nonjudicial remedies such as mediation, negotiation, and "fair fighting" are effective tools for use in dealing with childhood violence has enjoyed some speculation in recent years. This work evaluates the hypothesis that such methods are unjust to the victims of such violence and that these methods must be abandoned in favor of appropriate punishment for aggressors
The Naming of Children in British Society
Children's first names, according to S. Lieberman's analysis, are shaped by several criteria. British society appears to conform to established patterns
The Irrationality of Public Demand as Justification for Educators' Proliferation of Interscholastic Football
Delineation of the considerable resources available to educators handling problems shows lack of logic in the belief that public demand justifies the violence and sexism which characterizes interscholastic football

The Power of Negative Thinking
Ideas are often expressed in a negative way to call attention to a drastic need for change. To many educators such criticism is unwarranted and undesirable. Here an in-depth view of these educators' intolerance of negatively expressed ideas and opinions is presented. The effects of this approach are discussed
Nonintervention Into Siblings' Fighting as a Catalyst for Learned Helplessness
The hypothesis that siblings fight simply to attract adults' attention has enjoyed much speculation and some study of children's fighting in recent years. Current research indicates that refusing to intervene causes fighting to wane, supposedly because children will adequately solve problems by themselves if left to do so. The phenomenon of learned helplessness, in which lethargy and despair result from an inability to escape pain, has been appli…
