Top-star' priests and the catholic response to the ‘explosion' of evangelical protestantism in brazil: The beginning of the end of the ‘walkout'?

Brazil's ‘new' style of Catholicism, essentially the creation of a group of young, charismatic clergy—'pop-star priests' or ‘stars of the altar', as they have become known—appears to have set in train a reversal, in that Latin American country at least, of the ‘walkout'...

520 |a Brazil's ‘new' style of Catholicism, essentially the creation of a group of young, charismatic clergy—'pop-star priests' or ‘stars of the altar', as they have become known—appears to have set in train a reversal, in that Latin American country at least, of the ‘walkout' to evangelical Protestantism that David Martin analysed in Tongues of Fire: The Explosion of Pentecostalism in Latin America (1990). In that volume Martin described the rapid development of Protestantism in Latin America in the twentieth century and particularly from the 1960s as "... an explosion of conservative evangelical religion, a shift toward Pentecostalism, a rejection of ecumenism, and the manifestation among many of those involved of the evangelical capacity to unite modern technology with political conservatism"; (Martin, 1990: 54). During the past year millions of lapsed Catholics, and former Catholics some of whom were part of that ‘explosion', have become involved in the ‘new' Catholicism whose emergence illustrates the indispensable role of the media in religious reform and conversion in contemporary society. The article examines the superstructural elements of the ‘new' Catholicism and compares its positive ‘cosmology' and worldview with the emphasis on demonization in the teaching and ritual of the controversial, but highly successful evangelical Protestant Church, the Igreja Universal do Reino de Dens (the Universal Church of the Reign of God). This presentation also considers the various responses to the ‘new' Catholicism which, although responsible for the return to worship of millions of Catholics, has been strongly criticised by both Liberation Theology and the more theologically and liturgically conservative wing within the Roman Catholic Church in Brazil.
