“…Future research on religious participation should explore new directions and hypotheses. In particular, the current debates on the changing nature of the relationship between organized religion and society (Greeley, 1972;Hill, 1973;Demerath and Hammond, 1969;Fenn, 1972;Stauffer, 1973;Luckmann, 1967) can serve as a useful point of departure. The question which needs to be raised is: What part does organized religion play in the individual's efforts to participate in activities that the individual defines as religious?…”
