Americans blend religions online survey shows mix and match beliefs

The Pew Forum survey finds many Americans mix Christian and Eastern or New Age beliefs, with a third attending multiple places of worship and a quarter seeking services from different faiths. Reincarnation belief rises to 24 percent, and contact with the dead climbs to about 18 percent since 1996, especially among black Protestants and Catholics.

Mixed religion use shows Christians blend with New Age beliefs

A survey finds many Americans attend services outside their own tradition and mix Christianity with mysticism. About three in ten Protestants attend multiple denominations, nearly 20 percent attend non Protestant services, and roughly 20 percent of Catholics also attend non Catholic services. Beliefs in spiritual energy in nature, astrology, reincarnation, and ghosts are cited by sizable fragments of the population.
