Denominational, Religious and Cult Identifications Declared by School and University Youth in Poland. Based on the Results of Sociological Research Conducted in the Second Half of the 20th Century and in Both Decades of the 21st Century

Summary/Abstract: In this article, I analyze the identifications of middle school, high school, and university students with: Catholic Church (denominational), faith in God (religious) and compulsory religious practices (cultic). These identifications were evident in the attitudes, beliefs, behaviour and actions of Polish youth in the second half of the 20th century and in both decades of the 21st century. The basis for this presentation are the results of sociological research carried out between 1956 and 2018 by a number of researchers into the religiosity and morality of young people studying in middle schools, high schools and studying in universities. To what extent did the Polish youth consolidate their own faith and continue the religious traditions handed down to them by their parents during their religious upbringing in their own beliefs and actions? What percentage of these young people doubted these religious truths and the value of traditions, or rejected them as unnecessary in their personal and religious lives? I will answer these questions based on the research findings in this article, taking into account her declarations regarding these identifications.
