| Summary: | The relation between religious behavior and opposition to war among 1,062 students from four Eastern campuses is analyzed. On a Likert scale of opposition to war, Catholic respondents are most accepting of modern war and students of no religion, most opposed. Regular church goers are less opposed to war than the more frequent attenders and those who rarely go. Respondents from non-religious schools show higher opposition to war than those from Catholic schools; those from Quaker schools are most opposed. Quakers and those of no religion are most likely to demonstrate against war. Pro-war demonstrators are predominantly Catholic. |
