 | | In the end, the study of the sociology of religion, according to Weber, merely explored one phase of the emancipation from magic, that "disenchantment of the world" that he regarded as an important distinguishing aspect of Western culture. | | | Weber describes the caste system, consisting of the Brahmins (priests), the Kshatriyas (warriors), the Vaisyas (merchants) and the Shudras (labourers). | | | The Religion of China: Confucianism and Taoism was Weber's second major work on the sociology of religion. |

| | Max Weber's Approaches |
| | The goal of Weber's sociology of religion is to understand religious action from the subjective meaning of the actor rationally and also emphatically; it is not to establish the laws of religion and society, or to extract the essence of religious action. | | | Or the goal is not even to formulate and evaluate the social function of religion as Marx did that religion was the opium of the mass or as Durkheim did that religion was what made moral society hold together. | | | In order to understand sociological reality of religion, Weber holds the importance of religious idea which cannot be reduced to the component of material interests (Marx) or to the social nexus and function (Durkheim). |

| | Max Weber's View of Objectivity in Social Science |
| | Weber held the belief, they say, that "there is no longer any possibility of an objective ranking of ultimate values or moral principles." 19 | | | Answering these questions in the affirmative, which can be done only through an argument by extension, a frail but not hopeless step, leads to interpreting "The Profession and Vocation of Politics" as a metaphor for the actions of the social scientist, showing that the values he seeks to serve are also a question of faith. | | | For the politician, the question of value is a choice of a faith; but once it is made, it should be pursued by objective means. |
