- Summary:
- The teachings of most religions typically promote unity and love, yet those same religions often contribute to divisiveness, and even violence, in US politics. Addressing this apparent contradiction, Matthew Miles offers an original way to conceptualize and measure religiousness. The results of his research, based on extensive national survey data, have intriguing implications for the potential role of religion in supporting political tolerance and democratic values.
