Priests: A Calling in Crisis
ISBN: 9780226306452 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For several years now, the Roman Catholic Church and the institution of the priesthood itself have been at the center of a firestorm of controversy. While many of the criticisms lodged against the recent actions of the Church-and a small number of its priests-are justified, the majority of these criticisms are not. Hyperbolic and misleading coverage of recent scandals has created a public image of American priests that bears little relation to reality, and Andrew Greeley's Priests skewers this image with a systematic inside look at American priests today.
No stranger to controversy... For several years now, the Roman Catholic Church and the institution of the priesthood itself have been at the center of a firestorm of controversy. W...

Religion in Europe at the End of the Second Millenium : A Sociological Profile
ISBN: 9780765808219 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Most sociologists of religion describe a general decline in religious faith and practice in Europe over the last two centuries. The secularizing forces of the Enlightenment, science, industrialization, the influence of Freud and Marx, and urbanization are all felt to have diminished the power of the churches and demystified the human condition. In Andrew Greeley's view, such overarching theories and frameworks do not begin to accommodate a wide variety of contrasting and contrary social phenomena. Religion at the End of the Second Millennium engages the complexities of contemporary Europe to...
