Answer to Question 1

Functionalists tend to look at religion in terms of how it contributes to the stabilization and continuity of society. They stress that religion is a universal feature of all society since it serves universal human needs. In contrast, conflict theorists examine how religious teachings and practices mirror and reinforce the inequalities in society.

Answer to Question 2

A night rider was a car parked along a country road with its lights out and engine off while the driver and their date engaged in romantic behavior.
