520 | |a In-depth interviews averaging two and one-half hours with a sample of 56 university faculty suggest that intellectuals are not divorced from involvement in the religious life. Few could be characterized as totally rejecting traditional aspects of religion and thus fulfilling the stereotype of the "atheistic" professor. However, when assessed against the tenets of the Apostles' Creed, there is a marked departure from these orthodox Christian beliefs. Although deviating from traditional beliefs, over half of the respondents belong to a church, attend services fairly regularly, and consider church membership and prayer to be important in their lives. A large majority also report that Biblical teachings exert an indirect influence on everyday decision-making. What emerges is a picture of intellectuals who have rather thoroughly demythologized the core beliefs of the Christian faith but, nevertheless, continue to practice their faith in both individual and institutional contexts. | ||
