Resource Abstract:
- description: Roman Catholic Churches In Large Cities in Arkansas This dataset includes buildings where Roman Catholics gather
for organized worship in cities with a population of 50,000 people or more. Roman Catholic Churches are Christian Churches
that are subject to the papal authority in Rome. In addition to what are commonly thought of as Roman Catholic Churches, this
data set also includes Newman (or Neumann) Centers and Chaldean Churches. Newman Centers are Roman Catholic Churches setup
specifically to serve college or university populations. The Chaldean Church (also known as the Chaldean Church of Babylon)
reunited with the Catholic Church in the 15th century. It originated in the Middle East. If a group of Roman Catholics gather
for organized worship at a location that also serves another function, such as a school, these locations are included in this
dataset if they otherwise meet the criteria for inclusion. Roman Catholic Shrines are included if they hold regularly scheduled
mass. If a congregation celebrates mass at multiple locations, we have tried to include all such locations. This dataset excludes
churches that are not subject to papal authority in Rome. Some churches may refer to themselves as "Catholic", and
yet not be part of the "Roman" Catholic Church and these Churches are excluded from this dataset. Specifically Protestant
Churches and their descendants which separated from the Roman Catholic Church beginning in 1517, Eastern Orthodox Churches
(e.g. Russian, Greek) which separated from the Roman Catholic Church in 1054, and Episcopalian (Church of England in America)
which separated from the Roman Catholic Church in 1534 are excluded. The 22 "Eastern Catholic autonomous particular churches",
with the exception of the Chaldean Church, are also excluded. These are Churches which are in full communion with the Pope
in Rome, but which practice their own rites which are different from the Western or Latin Roman Catholic Church. This dataset
excludes rectories. Private homes, even if they are used for formal worship, are excluded from this dataset. Locations that
are only used for administrative purposes are also excluded. This dataset also includes original TGS research. All data is
non license restricted data. TGS has ceased making phone calls to verify information about religious locations. Therefore
all entities in this dataset were €œverified€ using alternative reference sources, such as topo maps,
parcel maps, various sources of imagery, and internet research. The [CONTHOW] (contact how) attribute for these entities has
been set to €œALT REF€. Text fields in this dataset have been set to all upper case to facilitate consistent
database engine search results. All diacritics (e.g. the German umlaut or the Spanish tilde) have been replaced with their
closest equivalent English character to facilitate use with database systems that may not support diacritics. The currentness
of this dataset is indicated by the [CONTDATE] attribute. Based upon this attribute, the oldest record dates from 2007/09/05
