Summary: | The article concentrates on a pilot study for the Alister Hardy Society, Great Britain. The study was conducted on the religion followed by people who do not visit public worship. This religion can be explored in terms of experiences, beliefs, and practices. Experiences include passing through crisis, meeting the dead, and extra sensory perception and relational consciousness. Out of the 804 people interviewed during the study in 1998, only 10 percent of those questioned did not believe in God. Most of the sources performed their research for the church, and used their results to recommend angles for Christian evangelism. |
