American sociologists defend surveys against Pope attack
Prominent American sociologists defend social science research after Pope Paul VI condemned sociological surveys as causing moral uncertainty. Quotes from Bishop Joseph Barnardin and scholars from Loyola Chicago and the University of Chicago stress surveys study what is rather than what ought to be. They caution against overinterpreting the Pope’s general audience remarks and emphasize objective data gathering in church related studies.
