69 % of People Believe in Angels

Although they might be weekly Church attenders every Sunday, 79% of Americans believe in God or another higher power, according to a new survey. The poll by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research asked 1,680 U.S. adults about what their beliefs are and finds that 69% think angels are real.

Survey also shows:

• 83% of adults believe that there are things that science or nature can’t explain, and 86% of those people also believe in God or a higher power.
• Nearly three-quarters (72%) believe in the power of prayer.
• While 69% of respondents believe in heaven, only 58% believe in hell and 56% believe in the devil.
• Almost two-thirds (63%) believe in karma, while 42% believe that spiritual energy can be rooted in physical things like plants, rivers, or crystals.
• About a third of respondents believe in reincarnation (34%), astrology (34%), and yoga as a spiritual practice (33%).
• Half of those surveyed believe that spirits of those who died can interact with the living.
• Only 6% don’t believe in anything asked about in the survey.
