How can sociology reclaim its commitment to rigorous inquiry and viewpoint diversity? Today, John Tomasi sits with Jukka Savolainen, Ph.D., Sociology professor at Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan, and the moderator of the Heterodox Academy's Sociology community. They discuss the discipline's current challenges, including ideological bias and lack of viewpoint diversity, and explore potential paths toward reform. Jukka shares his journey into sociology and his decision to leave Finland to pursue a PhD in the United States due to concerns about postmodernist influences in Finnish sociology. He addresses the core aims of sociology, its present state of fragmentation, and the impact of ideological bias on research and discourse. Jukka highlights the importance of empirical evidence and viewpoint diversity while pointing out taboos and restrictions on certain topics within the field.The conversation also examines the role of external interventions, using the example of the Danish government's restructuring of the sociology department at Copenhagen University in the 1980s, and the more recent actions by the state of Florida. In This Episode:

It's Tuesday, December 3rd, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Chinese democracy activists get prison time The Chinese Communist government in Hong Kong has sentenced 45 democracy activists to prison time. The activists had participated in a political party for a primary not approved of by the state. At least two Christians, Benny Tai, age 60, and Joshua Wong, age 28, were among those sent to prison. Finnish officials cancel concert featuring Handel's Messiah A school in the former Christian-influenced nation of Finland cancelled a concert featuring segments of Handel's Messiah. According to a news report from the Helsingin Salomat paper, the cancelled concert would have been a joint performance by the Finnish Baroque Orchestra and the Helsinki Chamber Choir. Biden-Harris Dept of Ed. persecuting Christian colleges The American Principles Project has released a report charging the Biden administration's Department of Education with persecuting Christian colleges. The report cites that nearly 70% of penalties imposed by the Department of Education's Office of Enforcement has been against Christian institutions and career colleges, even though these schools represent less than 10% of college students. And, within the last year, the Biden-Harris Department of Education imposed record fines against two of the nation's most prominent Christian universities. It fined Grand Canyon University a whopping $37.7 million for allegedly “not fully informing” students about the costs of its doctoral programs on its website. University officials “categorically” denied the allegation. And the education bureaucrats levied a $14 million fine against Liberty University for alleged violations which stem from a failure to comply with crime-reporting requirements. The Department's penalty, the largest ever for the category, hardly fits the accusation— especially considering steps the school voluntarily took to remedy its reporting and agreed to spend $2 million towards “on-campus safety improvements and compliance enhancements.” By comparison, Michigan State University was only fined $4.5 million in 2019 for failing to report sexual abuses by former team doctor Larry Nassar, who assaulted hundreds of victims The fines of the Christian colleges amount to more than all other penalties assessed by the Department of Education over the past seven years. Also, the report points out that funding for the heavy-handed enforcement has increased from $4 million to $61 million just since 2023. Planned Parenthood gave hearts of aborted babies to scientists Stomach-churning emails show Planned Parenthood negotiating terms regarding the donation of aborted fetuses for medical research, reports the New York Post. The emails discuss fetal tissue like any other commodity such as sugar or rice, nonchalantly negotiating for dead babies who were alive up to 23 weeks gestation from elective abortions. A heavily-redacted so-called “Research Plan” submitted to the University of California San Diego Institutional Review Board, and approved in 2018, states scientists wanted 2,500 dead babies from up to almost the sixth month of gestation for experimentation. The plan gruesomely states, “We will collect tissues from fetuses ranging from 4 to 23 weeks gestational age from subjects undergoing elective surgical pregnancy termination at Planned Parenthood in San Diego.” Although selling fetal tissue is illegal, donating it is not illegal. The contract between University of California San Diego and Planned Parenthood appears to allow Planned Parenthood to retain “intellectual property rights” relating to the fetal tissue, although it also does not grant the school the independent right to “commercialize” the tissue. David Daleiden, pro-life journalist and the founder of the Center for Medical Progress, obtained the emails by filing a California public records request. Let's remember the words of Psalm 94:2-3, 6-7, 8-10. “Rise up, O Judge of the Earth; repay to the proud what they deserve! O Lord, how long shall the wicked exult? They kill the widow and the sojourner, and murder the fatherless; and they say, ‘The Lord does not see; the God of Jacob does not perceive.' “Understand, O dullest of the people. Fools, when will you be wise? He who planted the ear, does He not hear? He who formed the eye, does He not see? He who disciplines the nations, does He not rebuke?” Joe Biden pardons his son In a surprising turn around, President Joe Biden pardoned his son, Hunter Biden, of several firearms charges, and “all crimes committed between 2014 and 2024,” which could have added up to 17 years prison time, reports The Associated Press. Gun control has played a major part in the 4-year Biden administration. Between 1993 and 2008, while serving in the US Senate, Joe Biden voted against gun rights on all nine bills presented. Democrat Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett of Texas cheered him on. CROCKETT: “Way to go, Joe. Let me be the first one to congratulate the president for deciding to do this. Because, at the end of the day, we know that we have a 34-count convicted felon that is about to walk into the White House. So, for anyone that wants to clutch their pearls now, because he decided that he was going to pardon his son, I would say, take a look in the mirror.” But Scott Jennings, the conservative commentator on CNN, was aghast. JENNINGS: “This is the worst possible thing a president could possibly do to his party and to the country. To sit for a year and say, ‘I will not do this. The rule of law is sacred. We have to respect the justice system. We have to respect juries. We have to respect the guard rails and the norms of our democracy.' “These people are liars. Inflation: it's transitory. Afghanistan: it's a success. The border is secure. Robert Hur is a liar. The videos are cheap fakes. Biden has a cold. He'll never drop out. ‘Oh, I'll never pardon Hunter.' It's all a lie. It is all a grift. “Every American -- except the most partisan, brain-rotted people -- are going to be outraged by this today. He's disgraced. Joe Biden, [White House Press Secretary] Karine Jean-Pierre, how many minutes of tape do we have of both of these people telling the American people this will not happen? We could play it all morning. And it's a lie to benefit his own family. “He's drained every ounce of credibility from every surrogate. If Karine Jean-Pierre had an ounce of self-respect, she'd get off the plane in Africa today, where they're going so he can avoid the press, and resign. He's drained all of her credibility and everybody else who's defended this.” Interestingly, prior to the election, in an interview with Hugh Hewitt, President-elect Donald Trump said he would consider a pardon for Hunter Biden. Biden censors God in Thanksgiving Proclamation In other President Biden news, for the second year in a row, he issued a Thanksgiving proclamation completely avoiding any mention of God, reports Breitbart. Thus far, only Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden have left God out of Thanksgiving. Romans 1:21 explains that “although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.” Homosexual couples adopt at 7x the rate as heterosexual couples And finally, courts are awarding homosexual male couples and homosexual female couples living together in sin with adoptions at seven times the rate of heterosexual married couples, according to recent data from the Census Bureau. A full 21% of homosexuals living in a sinful relationship have adopted children. Tragically, the Mark Regnerus study conducted in 2012 found that 8% of children raised in homosexual homes are victims of incest.

Gender Studies programs focus on the women's victimhood and how to remedy that (usually through Marxist means). That's a problem because it doesn't focus on what women are and can give, are, or their potential. Enter the Catholic Gender Studies program.

The first book in the storied career of one of the most influential conservative legal scholars and philosophers of our day is the focus of an upcoming conference in Washington, DC. Making Men Moral (1993) is the book and Robert P. George is the man behind it—Princeton professor of jurisprudence, bioethicist and pro-life and civil liberties champion. Scheduled speakers include some of the most important thinkers on social conservatism and legal thought of the generations he has molded, plus many of his peers and George himself. This conference is our focus for today. As the founder and director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton University since 2000, George has provided a model for a slew of similar programs, centers and institutes throughout American academia and abroad. He is also a noted public speaker, often in partnership with his good friend the African-American scholar, Cornel West. Because of George's outsized role in public discussion of moral issues and his unique position as a stalwart Christian voice and admired scholar in the heavily secular academe of our time, rather than interview the author of a book today I will be chatting with one of the organizers of Making Men Moral: 30th Anniversary Conference. This event is co-sponsored by the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), the Ethics & Public Policy Center, Pepperdine University School of Public Policy, and the Project on Constitutional Originalism and the Catholic Intellectual Tradition at Catholic University. And luckily for those unable to attend in person the event at AEI in Washington, DC Thursday, November 30, 2023 | 12:00 PM to 5:30 PM ET and Friday, December 1, 2023 | 9:00 AM to 5:15 PM ET, they can register to follow the proceedings live online for free. This is a welcome opportunity to learn about one of the most important books in the fields of moral philosophy, the philosophy of law, and natural law of the last 30 years. For decades, George's Making Men Moral: Civil Liberties and Public Morality has been the go-to text for legal scholars, political theorists, philosophers and educated readers who want to grasp what types of human vice and folly can be legitimately regulated, what the relationship is between morals legislation and freedom, what is owed by the individual to the ordering of society, and what falls under the protection of privacy or basic civil liberties legal regimes. The conference features leading lights in the conservative legal firmament such as our guest today--J. Joel Alicea an associate professor at the Columbus School of Law of the Catholic University of America, Sherif Girgis, Melissa Moschella and Professor George himself. It will also feature scholars in the fields of theology and religious learning such as Andrew T. Walker; bioethicists and legal scholars such as O. Carter Snead; luminaries in the field of natural law like Hadley Arkes; journalists such as Timothy P. Carney and Alexandra DeSanctis and notable social scientists such as Mark Regnerus and W. Bradford Wilcox. The first day of the two-day conference will feature an interview of George by his fellow public intellectual and former student, Ryan T. Anderson. Our guest today, Professor Alicea, will not only open the conference but will participate in a panel discussion entitled, “Making Men Moral and Constitutional Interpretation,” the title of which nicely encapsulates two of the many roles Robert P. George serves in the public sphere: George is both a powerful moral voice and a skillful, much loved professor at Princeton where he teaches a famous course on Constitutional Interpretation (the lectures of which were recorded and are available free online). Let's hear from Professor Alicea. Hope J. Leman is a grants researcher. Learn more about your ad choices.

And luckily for those unable to attend in person the event at AEI in Washington, DC Thursday, November 30, 2023 | 12:00 PM to 5:30 PM ET and Friday, December 1, 2023 | 9:00 AM to 5:15 PM ET, they can register to follow the proceedings live online for free. This is a welcome opportunity to learn about one of the most important books in the fields of moral philosophy, the philosophy of law, and natural law of the last 30 years. For decades, George's Making Men Moral: Civil Liberties and Public Morality has been the go-to text for legal scholars, political theorists, philosophers and educated readers who want to grasp what types of human vice and folly can be legitimately regulated, what the relationship is between morals legislation and freedom, what is owed by the individual to the ordering of society, and what falls under the protection of privacy or basic civil liberties legal regimes. The conference features leading lights in the conservative legal firmament such as our guest today--J. Joel Alicea an associate professor at the Columbus School of Law of the Catholic University of America, Sherif Girgis, Melissa Moschella and Professor George himself. It will also feature scholars in the fields of theology and religious learning such as Andrew T. Walker; bioethicists and legal scholars such as O. Carter Snead; luminaries in the field of natural law like Hadley Arkes; journalists such as Timothy P. Carney and Alexandra DeSanctis and notable social scientists such as Mark Regnerus and W. Bradford Wilcox. The first day of the two-day conference will feature an interview of George by his fellow public intellectual and former student, Ryan T. Anderson. Our guest today, Professor Alicea, will not only open the conference but will participate in a panel discussion entitled, “Making Men Moral and Constitutional Interpretation,” the title of which nicely encapsulates two of the many roles Robert P. George serves in the public sphere: George is both a powerful moral voice and a skillful, much loved professor at Princeton where he teaches a famous course on Constitutional Interpretation (the lectures of which were recorded and are available free online).

The first book in the storied career of one of the most influential conservative legal scholars and philosophers of our day is the focus of an upcoming conference in Washington, DC. Making Men Moral (1993) is the book and Robert P. George is the man behind it—Princeton professor of jurisprudence, bioethicist and pro-life and civil liberties champion. Scheduled speakers include some of the most important thinkers on social conservatism and legal thought of the generations he has molded, plus many of his peers and George himself. This conference is our focus for today. As the founder and director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton University since 2000, George has provided a model for a slew of similar programs, centers and institutes throughout American academia and abroad. He is also a noted public speaker, often in partnership with his good friend the African-American scholar, Cornel West.

In initiating the Synod on Synodality, which is set to run through 2024, Pope Francis sought to lead the whole Church into a time of prayer, listening, and discernment. His hope is to foster these dispositions and habits within the Church as the regular way of living ecclesial life together. As this particular synodal process moves from the continental stage to universal stage, we wanted to spend some time getting a better sense of what this synod is all about and why it has been called. Our guest today is well-positioned to help us along.Sr. Marie Kolbe Zamora is currently serving in the Vatican's General Secretariat of the Synod. She is a Franciscan Sister of Christian Charity, who completed her advanced degrees in theology at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome, writing her dissertation on the “Ecclesiological Elements in the Early Theology of St. Bonaventure.” She joins us from Rome, where she has been living most recently since 2021 upon her appointment to help plan the current synod.Follow-up Resources:“Co-Responsibility: An Antidote to Clericalizing the Laity?” by John Cavadini in Church Life Journal.Called & Co-Responsible: Exploring Co-Responsibility for the Mission of the Church, Conference at the University of Notre Dame (videos of presentations)Recorded seminars on co-responsibility, from the McGrath Institute for Church Life“Questioning the Authenticity of the Synod on Synodality,” with Mark Regnerus on Church Life TodayThis episode is supported by Holyart.com is Europe's largest Catholic e-commerce, offering more than 65k items, made in Italy.

You may remember in the last couple years the listening sessions that took place in dioceses and parishes as a first step in the Church's “synod on synodality.” Maybe you participated in one of these listening sessions, or even helped to host one, as I did. By Fall of 2022, reports from those parish listening sessions were gathered at the diocesan level, then at the national level by bishops' conferences, and eventually sent to an organizing committee at the Vatican. At that point, a group gathered to review the reports and write a Document on the Continental Phase, which was meant to synthesize the local and national reports, and prepare for the next stage in the synodal process. When my guest today started to look more closely at the methodology of this process, though, he, as a social scientist, started to question the authenticity of the process itself, at least in terms of what it was purported to be. Are we really hearing the voice of the faithful here?My guest is Mark Regnerus, professor of sociology at the University of Texas at Austin and author of an article published in early 2023 in Public Discourse, calling the methodology of the synodal process thus far into question. In addition to this article written for a popular audience, Professor Regnerus is the author of more than 40 articles in peer reviewed journals and, additionally, author of four books, including The Future of Christian Marriage. He joins me today to discuss his misgivings about this synodal process, yes, as a Catholic, but more distinctively from his professional perspective as a social scientist.Follow-up Resources:● “Census Fidei?

In this episode, Dr. Mark Regnerus, Professor of Sociology at UT Austin and Senior Fellow and founder of the Austin Institute, joins us to discuss a recent study he carried out concerning the approval and disapproval of medical-surgical interventions to treat gender dysphoria by Americans. The study uncovered some interesting information on links between the number of children one has, religiosity, and political alignment and one's attitude toward these sorts of procedures related to gender transition. Dr. Regnerus also discusses here the legality of hormone treatment and the philosophical underpinnings of the problem of transgenderism. We hope you join us to find out more about this pressing and timely cultural issue.

Thank you Newsstand Studio at 1 Rockefeller Plaza for providing a place for me to record this episode for y’all! No more Brooklyn closet recording!!! Welcome back to the That’s What He Said series, where I ask men all the questions you’re DYING to know. Last week, we took a short break with the series so I could address the sex scandals that have been exposed recently in the evangelical church. It’s a hard conversation, but it’s one we need to be having. You can take a listen here. This week, I’m sharing the conversation I had with Ben Stuart a while back. He is the pastor of Passion City Church DC, but before that he ran a college and singles ministry. Basically, he has worked with a lot of young single Christians. DC is one of the loneliest cities in America and people longing for connection come to his church to find it. We do a deep dive into the question “Where are all of the single Godly men?” plus how you can have a healthy dynamic in male/female friendships. Where are all of the single Godly men? There are two levels to this question: physically where are they… and why are they not pursuing me? He notes the social implications of technology has changed the dating scene. People are losing the personal connection and ability to socialize in person. Only 12% of single women were asked out in the last year. “I know great men that are running in the world, and if you get running in a healthy direction, you’re going to see them out there.” There can be a blame shift that happens when we lament that there are no guys out there. Around 10% of women ask men out every year—they want to be pursued! How can you have a healthy dynamic in a male/female friendship? Friendship is possible, but it’s important to ask yourself and the other person what friendship really means. “If you say, ‘I want to be friends,’ but any other person’s presence makes you feel threatened… you don’t want to be friends. You want possession.” Long term, is it worth spending all of your energy on male friendships? When you get married, would you husband be comfortable with them around? Are we too busy getting all of our micro-needs met by several guy friends to have our needs met by one romantic partner? “Decoupling commitment and sex damaged both. We lost both.” Resources Keep up with Ben on Instagram at @ben_stuart_. Hear more from Ben on the Passion City Church DC Podcast and YouTube Channel.

In the future of Christian Marriage, Mark Regnerus explores how today's Christians find a mate within a faith that esteems marriage but in a world that increasingly yawns at it.
What do you do with research that doesn't match your opinion? You demonize it, of course. That shows how tolerant you are.

Peter Kapsner reflects on an upcoming book by sociologist Mark Regnerus on "The Future of Christian Marriage." Campus minister Shelby Abbott, author of "DoubtLess," talks about the importance of coming alongside young adults to help them honestly face their misgivings about God and know the difference between doubt and unbelief.

You’ve probably noticed that the views toward and practices of marriage have changed. But how? And how do Christian views and practices differ?That’s what Mark Regnerus set out to discover in a global study of Christians from across denominations. You’ll find the results in his new book, The Future of Christian Marriage, published by Oxford University Press. Mark is a professor of sociology at the University of Texas at Austin and author of many important books, including Cheap Sex and the Transformation of Men, Marriage, and Monogamy and Forbidden Fruit: Sex and Religion in the Lives of American Teenagers.You might not read a lot of sociology. But if you’re a church leader, you need to read this book. He put into words what I’ve observed but did not understand. He gave me context for the trends and a sense of urgency about the consequences.Mark found that marriage is no longer something Christians pursue in order to meet life goals. It’s something they aspire to do someday if life works out in the meantime. The result is far fewer marriages, of course. But this shift means a lot more, not only for Christian marriage, but for Christian ministry. Mark describes the intrusion of the market mentality into our homes, marriages, and bedrooms. He writes, “Our most intimate relationships are being treated as a means, often discarded, to attain those ends and acquisitions that have been most effectively marketed to us.”And what is the result for Christian marriage? Nothing good, Mark warns: “Young adults are offered no guidance about maturation, mortgages, or marriage—save for words of caution, counsel to delay, and cost-benefit evaluation.”Mark joins me on Gospelbound to discuss the “monumental, consequential, and subtle” shift in Christian marriage and way too many questions than I have time to ask. This episode of Gospelbound is brought to you by the Sing! Global Conference from modern hymn writers, Keith & Kristyn Getty. This four-day online event will bring together an array of more than 100 Christian leaders and artists from around the world like John Piper, Trip Lee, Joni Eareckson Tada, and David Platt, to examine how the songs of Scripture build deep believers in the 21st century.

Anyone else dizzy by how quickly some things went from being unthinkable to unquestionable? Just in the last few years? Although the most recent demands of the Sexual Revolution are more radical than ever, people seem to be embracing them more quickly than ever. For example, when Andrew Sullivan first made the case for same-sex marriage, in the New Republic back in 1989, the very notion was considered to be beyond the fringe, and it stayed that way for about two decades. Then, suddenly, it wasn't beyond the fringe anymore. By 2012, a majority of Americans favored same-sex marriage, and three years later, it became a constitutional right. Today, opposition or even ambivalence to same-sex marriage is regarded as “beyond the fringe.” And the pace of change on sexual issues has only accelerated. Transgenderism was considered beyond the fringe when same-sex marriage was legalized, and I predict the acceptance of polyamory could happen even faster. So what explains this quick and thorough collapse of the old moral consensus? That's what I talk about on the BreakPoint Podcast this week with sociologist Mark Regnerus of the University of Texas. Our conversation dug into a recent Public Discourse article he wrote: “How the Rise in Unreligious Americans affects Sex and Marriage: Comparative Evidence from New Survey Data.” Just after the midterm elections in November 2018, Mark Regnerus asked three groups—Catholics, Evangelical Protestants, and the non-religious—about their opinions relating to marriage, family, and sexuality. He compared their responses with those from a survey he conducted three years prior. What Regnerus found was that the nonreligious are now even more likely to hold “progressive” views on marriage, family, and sexuality, especially when compared to self-identified Catholics and Evangelicals. For instance, 24 percent of the non-religious agreed with the statement “marriage is outdated,” compared to just 10 percent of Catholics and 2 percent of Evangelicals. Similarly, the non-religious were three times more likely to say that polyamorous relations were okay compared to Catholics and ten times more likely compared to Evangelicals. And, the non-religious were eight times as likely as Evangelicals to say that “sometimes extra-marital sex can be okay.” Of course, the strong relationship between one's religious observance and their view on marriage, family, and sex is no surprise. What makes Regnerus' study so revealing is how rapidly the number of those who self-identify as non-religious has increased. In 2015, they made up 15 percent of the respondents. Four years later, they made up twenty percent, a one-third increase in only four years. The non-religious are often called the “nones,” and it's important to remember that relatively few of them are atheists or agnostics. Many believe in things like astrology and witchcraft and many consider themselves quite spiritual. But they reject authoritative religious traditions and institutions, and increasingly embrace progressive views on social issues. But the even more “ominous” trend from this study is that even though there exists a significant disparity in views between the religious and non-religious, the religious are displaying trends of increasing liberalization too. “Catholics…have witnessed liberalization in attitudes,” Mark says, though “Evangelical numbers display a more modest uptick.” Regnerus concludes that Christians seem to be growing more complicit in the Sexual Revolution, or at least more quiet about their misgivings, year by year. Don't miss this important discussion with Mark Regnerus on the BreakPoint Podcast. It's a conversation that will help you prepare when the next previously-unthinkable thing becomes conventional wisdom, which, at the rate we're going, could be next week.
As America becomes less religious, with more and more people identifying as "nones" when it comes to religion, it's not surprising that American attitudes toward sex and marriage is changing, and not for the better. Clearly, on matters of marital fidelity, divorce, homosexuality, transgenderism, etc., non-religious people are more permissive than religious people. But, as sociologist Mark Regnerus discusses with John Stonestreet on today's BreakPoint Podcast, even the attitudes of religious people on such issues are growing more permissive by the day. Mark Regnerus is professor of Sociology at the University of Texas at Austin, and a senior fellow at the Austin Institute for the Study of Family and Culture.

We may want a simple world, but that’s not the world we have. UT Austin sociologist Mark Regnerus studies not how we think people should live, but how they actually do live. He joins us for a fascinating look at why it’s harder to get married these days, and why people are having less sex than ever.
For the past several years, social scientists have been increasingly aware of what is called the “replication crisis” in their disciplines. In 2015, the Reproducibility Project at the University of Virginia tried to replicate the results of nearly 100 studies published in psychology journals. Even after going “through extensive measures to remain true to the original studies,” they could only replicate the original findings in 36 percent of the studies, and even then, the effects “were smaller than the initial studies effects.” This problem with replicating results isn't limited to psychology or the social sciences. As Pascal-Emmanuel Gobry of the Ethics and Public Policy Center has noted, medicine is often afflicted with a similar replicability problem. As the saying goes, the first step in fixing a problem is acknowledging you have one. However, given the personal, professional, and political stakes often at work here, that's easier said than done. That's why a recent bit of honesty by a publication you may never have heard of is so welcome. Back in 2014, the journal Social Science & Medicine published a study entitled “Structural stigma and all-cause mortality in sexual minority populations.” The study attempted to measure the impact of anti-gay prejudice on the death rate of gay men and lesbians. The study concluded that “Sexual minorities living in communities with high levels of anti-gay prejudice experienced a higher hazard of mortality than those living in low-prejudice communities.” Specifically, this increased “hazard of mortality” “[translated] into a shorter life expectancy of approximately 12 years . . . for sexual minorities living in high-prejudice communities.” The study was used as scientific confirmation of an emerging cultural narrative. Not only is anti-gay prejudice wrong, we are often told, it can even be lethal. Well, not so fast. Mark Regnerus of the University of Texas did what social scientists in the peer-review process are supposed to do… He set out to replicate the results of that study. Going over the same data set, he found multiple errors, flawed assumptions, and possible “confounding variables,” possible factors that the researchers failed to take into account: ethnicity, age, sex, and smoking, to name but four. In a 2017 study published in the same journal, Regnerus, who by the way is a Christian, concluded “Attempts to replicate the study . . . repeatedly failed to generate the original study's key finding on structural stigma.” To put it mildly, questioning the findings didn't go over so well. Nathaniel Frank of the What We Know project, which is a gay research portal, summed up the views of many who commented when he wrote that, “Mark Regnerus destroyed his scholarly credibility when . . . he allowed his ideological beliefs to drive his conclusions,” and that “there's an enormous body of research showing the harms of [sexual] minority stress, and Regnerus is simply not a trustworthy critic of this research.” Except, as it turns out, Regnerus is trustworthy. Earlier this month Social Science & Medicine announced that the original study had been retracted at the original authors' request. In response to Regnerus' findings, they hired another group to try and replicate their original findings, and that group came to the same conclusion as Regnerus. As one social science website put it, “It was a mistake of the journal Social Science & Medicine to publish that original paper, but, on the plus side, they published Regnerus's criticism. Much better to be open with criticism than to play defense.” Exactly. Mistakes like this are inevitable. All we can ask is that, once the mistake has been pointed out, ideology should not be allowed to get in the way of the truth. The journal did the right thing, which is as welcome as it is rare.

In this week's “Life Together” podcast, Marianne leads off a discussion of an article about joy: who needs it? We discuss some practical ways to have joy together. Next, Bernard clarifies how, as a moneyless pauper under a vow of poverty, he would go about procuring a particular book that he wants. Following updates on what's happening around various Bruderhof communities there is an interview with Sir Paul Coleridge on marriage and family. Finally, as we continue our discussion of our spiritual forerunners, we ponder the importance of Thomas a Kempis and Meister Eckhardt.

The Unification Church was virtually unknown in America until the 1970's when concerned parents, anti-cult groups and members of congress raised alarm about the powerful "brainwashing" techniques used by "moonies" to lure new converts into their dangerous cult. Now that the self-proclaimed "messiah" Sun Myung Moon has died a group of sociologists are defending the Unification Church. While their beliefs and practices may strike most as odd they are hardly the predatory cult some have made them out to be (these sociologists claim). In particular, researchers of new religious movements object to the pseudoscientific notion of "brainwashing"--insisting that what compels people to join groups like the Unification Church amounts to nothing more than ordinary forces of group psychology at play in any religion. Anti-cult groups have fired back accusing these researchers of engaging in apologetics and secretly accepting financial kick-backs from the same groups they defend. What is a cult and how is it different (if at all) from a religion? Is there any scientific support for the concept of brainwashing? We will attempt to answer these questions and more. Also on this episode: violence across the Muslim world, blasphemy laws backfire in Pakistan, and Mark Regnerus' research on homosexual parenting is dissected for this weeks "God Thinks Like You"
California’s rate of births to teenage mothers has hit a historic low. For years, rates were on the decline around the country, throughout the sex-obsessed 1990s — when parents rallied around the V-chip, fretted about Internet obscenity, and shielded impressionable eyes from strutting pop starlets. Credit went to many factors, from increased access to contraceptives and improved sex education to teens simply waiting longer to have sex. But in recent years, as the pregnancies of political daughters and TV stars have brought broad attention to the subject once more, teen pregnancy rates have started rising everywhere except California, which has pursued robust state-supported teen pregnancy prevention efforts. What changed around the country, and what is California doing right? Zócalo invited a panel including moderator Emily Bazar, sociologist Mark Regnerus, author of the forthcoming Premarital Sex in America, Connie Kruzan, director of Adolescent Services at North Hollywood's Valley Community Clinic, and Francisca Angulo-Olaiz, a research scientist at the Center for Research on Adolescent Health and Development, to discuss what the country can learn from California’s progress on teen pregnancy.
