Churches Appear To Work More For Rich
A University of Michigan sociologist finds Protestant churches favor wealthier, successful members. In a two part Lutheran magazine study, Dr. Gerhard Lenski Jr. notes Lutherans attend less but remain less likely to skip services, yet churchgoers lean Republican while those at home trend Democrat. He observes distress reduces attendance, unlike Catholics who seek church during crises. Positive notes include Lutheran men attending more and converts increasing, with greater racial tolerance among Lutherans.
