Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Religious Progress on the Pacific Slope: Addresses and Papers at the Celebration of the Semi-Centennial Anniversary of Pacific School of Religion, Berkeley, California It enjoys the co-operation of Christians and churches of many names. It had been undenominational and union since 1912, while in all its history it had made its service as extended and inclusive as possible. At the semi-centennial this broad character was conspicuous and was cheered and fortified by the fraternal relations enjoyed. Many requests for publication have come from those who heard the addresses and from other friends of the school. In response to these and in the faith that it will add something of value to the records of the Pacific Coast, as well as to the service of the institution, this volume is issued. It is made possible by the ample provision of the E. T. Earl Lectureship Foundation. It is offered with earnest hope for its usefulness to the alumni and friends of Pacific School of Religion, to educational institutions and public libraries, to all who are interested to trace the past, estimate the present and forecast the future.

"Pretty much like the rest of the country, only more so." This quip from Wallace Stegner well-represents the Pacific region's religious culture. California, Nevada, and Hawaii emerged more recently, more quickly and with more diversity and fluidity than the other United States. Although influenced by Mexican Catholicism, Native Traditions, Asian Religions, and Euro-American Christianity, no religious tradition dominates, and a secular ethos usually reigns. But this very religious indifference makes California and the rest of the region open to all sorts of missionary movements and religious innovations. New organizational forms, new spiritual therapies, and new religious hybrids all compete for residents' attention along with secular ways for making meaning. With all these options, residents of the region mix, match, and move between religious identities more than other Americans. Without ignoring its diversity, Religion and Public Life in the Pacific Region highlights the key aspects of the region's fluctuating religions and its spirituality's impact on political life.
