The Baha'i International Community believe in a basic harmony between religion and science. Jehovah's Witnesses oppose the false teachings of other sects; opposition often extends to modern science, including medicine. Buddhists believe in the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path. Mormons believe in divine healing through the laying on of hands.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B, D, F
A majority of Americans who are affiliated with a religion do not believe their religion is the only way to salvation. And almost the same number believes that there is more than one true way to interpret the teachings of their religion. More than half of Americans rank the importance of religion very highly in their lives, attend religious services regularly, and pray daily. A plurality of adults who are affiliated with a religion want their religion to preserve its traditional beliefs and practices, rather than adjust to new circumstances or adopt modern beliefs and practices. Significant minorities across nearly all religious traditions see a conflict between being a devout person and living in a modern society. While 92 of Americans believe in the existence of God or a universal spirit, there is considerable variation in the nature and certainty of this belief. Six out of 10 adults believe that God is a person with whom people can have a relationship; but one out of fourincluding about half of Jews and Hindussee God as an impersonal force.
