About 7 in 10 U.S. adults say they believe in angels, according to a new poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.
The large number of U.S. adults who say they believe in angels includes 84% of those with a religious affiliation - 94% of evangelical Protestants, 81% of mainline Protestants and 82% of Catholics - and 33% of those without one.
And of those angel-believing religiously unaffiliated, that includes 2% of atheists, 25% of agnostics, and 50% of those identified as 'nothing in particular'.
American's belief in angels (69%) stands significant in the context of cultural and psychological aspects of human spirituality and religious inclination.
