- W2968146483 abstract "An American Catholic bishop once confided to me with dismay that the Vietnamese who attend mass in his archdiocese are 'not really Catholic.' Initially I was perplexed by this claim. Did he mean that they had not been baptized in their homeland? Something else? 'They're still too Buddhist,' he explained. He meant that the Buddhist influence was great among Vietnamese Catholics, and they carried that hybrid tradition with them to the United States when they fled after the fall of Saigon in 1975. I thought of that conversation as I recently read a newspaper article on 'The Accidental Buddhist,' which called attention to hundreds of thousands of Americans who practice Buddhist meditation but do not affiliate with any Buddhist temple or center. These examples about Vietnamese Catholics and Buddhist meditators raise central questions in the study of religion: How do we define religious identity? Who is Catholic? Who is Buddhist? And how do we view those who have interest in a religion but do not affiliate? In this essay, I focus on the issue of religious identity as it confronts religion scholars, in particular those who investigate the history of Buddhism in the United States. I aim, first, to complicate our view of adherence, as I propose a strategy for establishing religious identity; and, second, I suggest that we add another category - sympathizer - to those we use to interpret religious life.1" @default.
