...poll's findings will appear in Psychology Today's March issue, along with an analysis written by the magazine's editor in chief, T. George Harris, and the orchestrator of the survey, Father Andrew Greeley. Greeley, a professor of sociology at the University of Arizona, is probably best known as what Spy magazine might call an un-bosomy dirty-book writer; his lust-strewn pop novels (The Cardinal Sins; St. Valentine's Night) regularly make the best- seller charts. Considering the widespread publicity given to marital cheating, Greeley admits that the survey results were "something of a surprise." "People...

Harris and Greeley argue that the nation may be experiencing a negative backlash to the sexual revolution. They note, for example, that 51% of women under 35 regretted having had a premarital sexual encounter (though only 16% of men felt that way). Meanwhile, according to another poll, the percentage of Americans who disapproved of extramarital sex rose from...

...director of the Kinsey Institute in Bloomington, Ind.: "We estimate that approximately 37% of married men and 29% of married women have at least one extramarital affair." A survey conducted by Lillian Rubin, a sociologist at Queens College in New York City, shows a 40% infidelity rate for spouses.

Translation: erroneous beliefs shared by some individuals about other people. Even the enchanted...

Perhaps the most emotional debates are those now occurring within the Roman Catholic Church. Father Andrew Greeley, the irrepressible sociologist and novelist, complained in a recent article that regard for priestly celibacy is being undermined by a "national network" of actively homosexual clergy. "In some dioceses, certain rectories have become lavender houses," he grumbled. Theologian Richard McBrien of the University of Notre Dame contends that homosexuality is so widespread that "heterosexual males are deciding in ever increasing numbers not even to consider the priesthood...
