And when it comes to keeping faith, many Americans now say they’re practicing more than one religion. From ABC News headquarters, this is World News with Charles Gibson. Tonight, we have a closer look at what Americans believe and how they worship. A Pew Research Center미국 여론조사 전문기관 study shows people are taking a mix and match approach to religion that for a growing number of people, there is no clear-cut answer about faith, but rather a mix of elements and experiences that defy무시하다 traditional labels to illustrate. 35% of Americans say they attend religious services at more than one place. Here’s Dan Harris.
You might think that people sitting in the pews신도좌석 alongside you believe the same things you do. But this new poll finds Americans are doing a tremendous amount of personalizing, taking and choosing from a diverse variety of religious traditions. For example, according to the pew forum on religion and public life, nearly six and ten Americans, people from all religious stripes, blend into섞다 their faith life, new age practices like astrology점성학 and eastern beliefs such as reincarnation윤회, and yoga as a spiritual, not just a physical practice.
The new poll also says a quarter of Americans sometimes attend services of a different faith. Glenda Somerville was raised in a strict catholic family still considers herself a catholic, but regularly attends protestant services. “I’m not just Roman Catholic. I believe in worshiping with other people because I do believe god embraces기꺼이 받아들이다 all of us. So I refuse to just ignore other people and their denominations종파.” Rabbi David Anbbour who studied everything from Taoism도교 노자 to martial arts now leads his New York City congregation and things like meditation명상 and yoga.
America has always had a thriving and competitive religious market place, but frankly the pollsters여론조사원 say they are surprised by the extent of the individual religious openness they’re seeing now. And they’re unsure about why it’s growing. As one believer we spoke to told us she’s proud of her faith, but god is bigger than any one religion. Dan Harris, ABC News, in Scottsdale, Arizona.
