Most Nineteenth Century Social Thinkers Society has at most times been dynamic and change has been inevitable, most nineteenth century social thinkers assumed that secularization was an irresistible tide that would eventually sweep away all religious activity. However society has remained adamant and clang to religion for different reasons; in view of this fact modern sociologists are far less likely to expect religion to fade away. This paper takes a look at a society without religion and the implication it has on the social structure, functions, and norms. It explains this idea using three social theories which are structural/social functionalism, social conflict, and symbolic interaction that have been developed to study changes in society. Religion has been part of society for a long time and the ideas have been passed from generation to generation (Sanderson, p.34)
