More than a generation ago, sociologist Will Herberg described how the numerous immigrants to these shores eventually became part of a tripartite Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish melting pot that defined their Americanism and shaped theu future. Today, immigrants are more diverse and so are their religions, with all of them, old and new, still operating within the framework of a secular society that preaches a civil religion. The more established religions have changed in the process of flourishing in an open and free marketplace of all faiths and cultures. This has led to a widespread identifi cation with religion on the part of individuals and a recognition of its anifving impact on American society. This phenomenon has roots in the First Amendment to the Constitution, which promotes the separation of church and state while demanding the free exercise of religion. It is no exagyمست to assert that, for all these reasons and more, the American experience with religion is unlike that of any other nation in the world. 200.9730517587890 Perpustakaan STTB Bandung Theological Seminary 200.973 Kos o E08004193 Non Fiction 200.973 Kos o WhatsApp_Image_2024-11-09_at_08.51.49.jpeg 49499 2014-12-11 08:36:43 2024-11-09 08:52:56 machine generated
