Indonesian society is a multicultural society that lives side by side with all the differences. In Indonesia, they are presently six official religions-namely Islam, Protestant Christian, Catholicism, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Confucianism. It is this difference of belief that makes people live in peace and practice their respective religious teachings without any intention of disturbing the beliefs of others. The teaching of tolerance is also applied in one of the villages in Malang Regency, namely Peniwen Village. The majority of the population of this village are Protestant and Catholic Christians. Residents in this village always carry out religious activities in accordance with what has been ordered without any sense of demeaning other religions. The method used in this article is descriptive qualitative using Max Weber's theory of rationality. The purpose of this article is to find out the rationality of the people of Peniwen Village in carrying out religious activities during the pandemic. This happened because during the pandemic almost all activities were limited.

The parochial priests in small Paraguayan towns are generally reputed, in Paraguay, to exercise an extraordinary amount of power and influence over the people of their parishes—to a greater extent, it would seem, than in most other Latin American countries. This is, moreover, despite the fact that the church, as an institution, is considerably weaker, economically and politically, than in all but a handful of such countries. Therefore, what power the individual priest may have can not be viewed as simply an extension of the power of the church. Most urban Paraguayans, including at least some members of the church hierarchy, are inclined to attribute this situation to the alleged superstitious or credulous nature of the Paraguayan peasants. The rural people themselves, on the other hand, are apt to explain the influence of their own local priest, at least, as due to his personal qualities or strength of character, as did the Services when referring to the prestige of the local priest of Tobati.

Penelitian ini didasari oleh fenomena kontak bahasa yang terjadi di Sentra Kramik Plered Jawa Barat. Plered adalah salah satu daerah Sunda di Jawa Barat yang mayoritas masyarakatnya menggunakan bahasa Sunda sebagai bahasa pengantar sehari-hari. Bagaimanapun, fenomena kontak bahasa antara masyarakat Plered dengan para pelancong (peminat kramik) baik dari dalam negeri maupun luar negeri, akan menimbulkan fenomena multilingualisme; campur kode atau alih kode. Bagaimana masyarakat Plered mempertahankan bahasa daerah Sunda sebagai bahasa daerahnya, fenomena ini menjadi menarik untuk dikaji. Untuk mengetahui hal tersebut, peneliti melakukan wawancara dengan para pengrajin keramik dan observasi langsung terhadap transaksi jual beli di Sentra Kramik Plered. Dari hasil pengolahan data, disimpulkan bahwa upaya pemertahanan bahasa Sunda dilakukan melalui penamaan produk keramik (95% berbahsa Sunda, 5 % bahasa Asing), dalam percakapan sehari-hari antar orang dewasa dan antar anak-anak, dalam kegiatan formal kepala desa, dalam acara keagamaan, dalam transaksi jual beli yang penjualnya adalah orang dewasa. Bahasa Sunda kurang digunakan dalam peristilahan bahan baku, proses, dan alat pembuatan keramik, dalam penamaan toko, dalam pergaulan antar remaja, dan dalam transaksi jual beli yang penjualnya anak remaja.Kata kunci: The present research is motivated by the language contact phenomena at the ceramic center, Plered, West Java. Plered is one of Sundanese speaking areas in West Java in which Sundanese is used as a daily language by the majority of the people. The language contact phenomena between people of Plered and domestic and international visitors (ceramic enthusiasts) give rise to multilingualism phenomena; code mixing or code switching. How people of Plered maintain Sundanese as their local language is the focal interest of this research. To meet that end, interviews with ceramic makers and direct observation of transaction at the ceramic center were deployed. Results indicate that Sundanese language maintenance is undertaken through the naming of ceramic products (95% in Sundanese and 5 % in foreign language), in daily communications between adults and children, on formal occasions of the chief of the village, religious activities, and business transaction whose vendors are adults. Sundanese is less used in the naming of raw materials, process and ceramic-making tools, ceramic stores, interactions among teenagers and business transaction whose vendors are teenagers.

This article examines the activities of Christian religious communities and the birth of a commercialised Christian religion. It begins by creating an atmosphere that the Nigerians find themselves in, and explaining as to why they rely more on religious vendors for solutions to their physical and spiritual problems. Thus, the real causalities are the people with no contentment. The commercialisation of religion in Nigeria has been characterised by increased poverty and social vices such as armed robbery, bad leadership and bad citizenship. Findings reveal that adherents of the various churches that have commercialised their blessings comprise both the poor and the rich of the society. The poor are seeking God for instant blessing, while the rich are seeking God for the sustainability of their wealth and protection. True religion is now lost in Nigeria. Some pastors treat the church as an investment, expecting to get something in return personally when the institution prospers financially. This is evident in the rise in sugar-coated preaching in most Nigerian churches. It was discovered that commercialisation of churches is mainly for financial gains, and it is an offshoot of the proliferation of churches in Nigeria.
