| 520 | |a There are frequent reports that the increase in permissive morality towards behavior involving dishonesty in pecuniary matters, like tax cheating, is partly due to the secularization process. Using data from a nationwide Dutch survey (N = 1199), this study examined the effect of Christian belief, church involvement, denomination, and nonreligious background characteristics on self-interest morality. Multiple regression analyses indicated that, for the total sample, church involvement and Christian belief had moderate effects on self-interest morality. For the subset of church members the findings revealed that both church involvement and denomination had a strong effect on self-interest morality, with highly involved church members and Calvinists having a more strict moral outlook than members who are lesser involved and Catholics. Christian belief had a slight indirect effect; strong Christian believers were more likely to consider honesty to be a Christian duty in their life than weak Christian believers and, as a consequence, had a more strict moral outlook. Of the nonreligious variables age appeared especially important. On the whole, the results support the idea that the decline of Christian religion leads to a more permissive self-interest morality, and that different dimensions of religiosity account for this change. | ||
