1990年9月至1991年4月,笔者对河南省青年信教情况进行了调查。调查中发现,宗教在河南省一些地方的青年中影响越来越大,青年信教人数逐年增多,且向低龄化、知识化发展。河南省是一个多宗教的省份,基督教、天主教、伊斯兰教、佛教、道教俱全。信教人数160多万,青年约占15％左右,虽然不到全省青年总数的1％。但绝对数不小,而且发展比较快。1980年以前,青年信教人数很少,绝大多数地方没有青年信教。1980年以后,青年信教人数迅速增多,到1990年已达20多万人。在少数地方,青年信教人数已超过当地团员人数。甚至出现了个别党团员退出党团组织转而信教的情况。如宜阳县青年信教人数1988年比1987年增加216人,1989年比1988年增加224人。叶县1990年1至5月,新入教356人,青年占75％。并且有向低龄化发展的趋势。据调查仅洛阳、三门峡两市18岁以下青少年信教的
September 1990 to April 1991, I conducted a survey of young people in Henan Province. The survey found that the influence of religion in some places in Henan Province has been growing. The number of young people in religious beliefs has been increasing year by year, and the development of younger and more educated people has taken place. Henan Province is a multi-religious province, Christian, Catholic, Islam, Buddhism, Taoism. The number of religious believers is more than 1.6 million, while young people make up about 15%, although less than 1% of the total number of youth in the province. But the absolute number is not small, but the development is faster. Before 1980, the number of young people who believed in religion was very small, and in most places there was no young religion. Since 1980, the number of young people in religious beliefs has rapidly increased, reaching more than 200,000 by 1990. In a few places, the number of young people who believe in religion has exceeded the number of local members. Even some individual members of the party have withdrawn from the caucuses and turned to believers. For example, the number of young believers in Yiyang County in 1988 increased by 216 over 1987 and 224 in 1989 compared with 1988. From January to May 1990 in Ye County, 356 were newly enrolled, accounting for 75% of youth. And there is a trend toward younger age. According to the survey only Luoyang, Sanmenxia two under 18 years of age are religious
