The pastoral position question would require rich data about the pastor's view on divorce and their members propensity for divorce + involvement in the church, data that may not exist.<br /><br />As far as Evangelicals vs. Mainliners, this requires rich denomination data that most surveys don't have. Some do, though, including the GSS which I posted last Tuesday.<br /><br />Thanks for the comment.Brad Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07800309833079635465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37421406.post-25988269064447808862006-12-06T14:50:00.000-05:002006-12-06T14:50:00.000-05:00Hey Brad-
