| Résumé: | The relationship between religion and ethnic prejudice is so complex that empirical research produces contradictory results. Some research has shown that the anti-religious and indifferent tend to be more tolerant toward Negroes with Jews, Protestants, and Catholics following in that order. Other studies have found certain Protestants to be more liberal than Jews and others less liberal than Catholics, with church members and regular attendants more tolerant than those who are not church members.A study of 1,012 freshmen and senior college students in four colleges in the same metropolitan area by means of a questionnaire found Catholics less tolerant than Protestants, Jews, or those claiming no religion. Those claiming no religion are the most tolerant followed by Jews and Protestants who are very close together. The relationship of parochial school education and church attendance to prejudice is also considered. |
