Summary: | Differences in religious communality orientations, i.e., the role of religion in shaping a person's group life and self-identification, among members of religiously conservative and liberal Protestant denominations in samples of two cities, were evaluated in terms of Gordon's assimilation paradigm. Specifically, religion of friends, church participation, religious self-identification, and intermarriage attitude were studied. Results indicated that conservative denominations were decidedly more communal than the liberal ones. Important differences persisted within both white- and blue-collar categories. Non-church Protestants differed sharply from the liberal as well as the conservative denomination members, as nearly all were low in communal orientation. |
