A New Study Finds 79% of Americans Believe in Miracles. Do You?

Feb. 22, 2010— -- A new study by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life found that 79 percent of Americans believe in miracles. The belief apparently spans generations, as the study found that young Americans are just as likely to believe in miracles as older Americans.

Believers in miracles often explain good outcomes to catastrophic events as divine intervention. Several survivors of the earthquake in Haiti, for example, said they believe a miracle saved their lives.
