Religious Beliefs: In ’03 A new Harris Poll reveals that, while the majority of Americans say they believe the basic concepts of the Bible, there’s also a growing acceptance of other religious beliefs—even among those who call themselves "Christian."

· 89% believe in miracles.

· 68% believe in the devil.

· 69% believe in hell, but hardly anybody expects that they will go to hell themselves.

· 51% believe in ghosts.

· 31% believe in astrology.

· 27% believe in reincarnation and that they were themselves reincarnated from other people.

· A complete breakdown of the poll can be found on the Harris Web site at www.harrisinteractive.com. (PWB 3/6/03)
