新的研究发现,教会被视为社区资产,但缺乏来自非信徒的信任。 Churches are seen as community assets but lack trust from non-attendees, new study finds.
根据一项新的研究,教会被视为具有相关性,但并不值得信赖。 Churches are seen as relevant but not trustworthy, according to a new study. 虽然59%的未参加教堂的人认为这些教堂对社区有好处,但只有30%的人相信这些教堂,而81%的人相信正规的教堂牧师。 While 59% of those not attending church find them good for communities, only 30% trust them, compared to 81% trust from regular churchgoers. 研究人员指出,丑闻和对隔绝感是造成这种信任差距的关键因素。 Researchers suggest that scandals and a perception of insularity are key factors in this trust gap. 这种观念的转变可能对宗教机构未来的相关性产生重大影响。 This shift in perception could have significant implications for religious institutions' future relevance.
