More Americans than not believe they have received protection from a guardian angel. A total of 55 percent of adults, including 20 percent of folks with no religion, make this claim, according to research conducted at Baylor University and reported in USA Today.
Broken down by religious categories, the results indicated that angelic protection was reported by 66 percent of evangelical Protestants, 81 percent of black protestants, 55 percent of mainline Protestants, 57 percent of Catholics, and 10 percent of Jewish respondents.
Not everyone has the same criteria for believing that a guardian angel provided protection. Not everyone is envisioning a being with wings. Some feel it is a departed loved one watching over them, some claim to hear the voice of God, and have an inner sense of protection.
Difficult financial times are motivating more people to turn to angels, according to a report in Britain's Times Online. Sales of angel paraphernalia, angel books, and courses on contacting angels have increased dramatically.
