| Research Abstract |
A survey of almost 1400 people in the U.S. and Japan was carried out amongst religious believers and non-believers. They were asked to what extent they agreed or disagreed with one hundred concepts concerning religion; more than non-believers, believers agreed with ninety of these concepts. There were some unexpected and remarkable common points : the "Vitalistic Salvation" was believed in both countries ; and deviations of belief from authentic dogmas were also found. Furthermore, we found a common structure consisting of six groups of concepts : 1. faith in a personal god ; 2. religious norms ; 3. action to transcendence ; 4. a great life, and the soul ; 5. this-worldly benefit ; and 6. control of emotions. The groups are integrated into two meta-factors : practical/exoteric and ontological/esoteric. It is the practical/exoteric meta-factor only that affects happiness.
