Question

In a work subtitled “How [this construct] Divides and Unites Us,” David Campbell and Robert Putnam attribute increased (10[1])American tolerance for these constructs (10[1])to the Aunt Susan Principle. To compare these constructs, Max Weber defined a continuum that evaluates “mode of membership” in them (10[1])on a scale (-5[1])of “decision” to “birth”. Robert Bellah proposed a “third time of trial” centered around presidential symbolism in the “civil” type of this construct. (10[1])Emile Durkheim argued (-5[1])that totemism is the most basic form of this construct. For (10[1])10 points, as a (10[1])society (10[1])modernizes, the presence and influence of what constructs decline, according to the secularization thesis? ■END■ (10[2])

ANSWER: religions [accept faith; accept church; accept sects or denominations; accept civil religion; prompt on Buddhism, Catholicism, Islam, Judaism, Mormonism, or Protestantism by asking “what more general construct is that a form of?”]
