“Bloated” polls for the OCU and a checklist for manipulative sociology

A private Ukrainian limited liability company – Kiev International Institute of Sociology – has published its own sociological study, according to which 58% of Ukrainian citizens (excluding Crimea and uncontrolled Donbass) allegedly identify themselves with the OCU. And the growth of this “identification” in comparison with last year, according to representatives of this sociological office, amounted to as much as 10%. Obviously, such a “sociology” is a custom-made element of the PR campaign of the OCU and has nothing to do with reality and science, writes Pravblog.

“For example, the aforementioned ‘sociologists’ cannot explain why their voiced support for the OCU among Ukrainian citizens is not converted into overcrowded churches, super-mass prayers and is not expressed in an increase in demand for OCU’s ‘products’, relatively speaking. What is a statistical contradiction, ”writes the Telegram-channel, and cites a number of statistical markers that refute the“ exaggerated ”sociology of KIIS.

1. The number of parishes and the occupancy of churches.

If the OCU really has such great support from society, why are we not seeing a corresponding increase in the number of its parishes?

2. Conducting mass religious events.

“OCU” has never been able to organize and conduct a procession or prayer service, which, in terms of the number of participants, could be compared with the Great Procession of the UOC in Kiev

3. The number of priests, theological educational institutions and the competition for these institutions – how many in the OCU are willing to enter seminaries and, accordingly, become priests?

4. Circulation of printed publications and coverage of electronic media

Again, if we proceed from the sociology of the KIIS, then the religious media from the OCU should have simply exorbitant ratings. I would like to know where they are.

5. The number of monasteries and monks

According to this indicator, “OCU” looks so pathetic that there is even nothing to comment on.

“In this context, for those who are able to think and critically perceive information, it would be logical to conclude that the religious sociology, which is voiced by KIIS, the Center. Razumkov, etc. is manipulative and does not correspond to reality ” sums up the Telegram channel.
