Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Religious Forces of the United States: Enumerated, Classified, and Described on the Basis of the Government Census of 1890, With an Introduction on the Condition and Character of American Christianity The purpose of this volume is to describe and classify all denominations, with statistical exhibits, so as to give a clear idea of the character and strength of the religious forces of the United States, as represented by ecclesiastical organizations. I. The sources of information and the plan. - The body of this volume is occupied by the results of the United States Census of Religious Denominations taken in 1890. Some results of the government census of 1906 are also furnished, and statistical summaries for 1900 and 1910, gathered by the author from denominational sources, official and unofficial, published and unpublished, and so arranged as to show the gains and the losses for each decade and changes in the list of denominations by union or division, by dissolution or creation. The government report for 1890 is very voluminous. It makes the county the civil unit and the classis, conference, diocese, presbytery, synod, etc., the ecclesiastical unit. That is, the statistics of each denomination are given by counties and States and by dioceses, presbyteries, conferences, etc., and denominations. In this volume it is deemed sufficient to give summaries by States and Territories and by conferences, dioceses, etc., advising those who want more minute details to consult the census volumes.
