Why are Americans losing trust in religion and the church but still believe in ghosts, curses and magic

Researchers found that some Americans trust science while also believing in ghosts, curses, and magic. The study analyzed responses from 1,812 adults, highlighting a complex relationship between faith and reasoning. People valuing secular rationalism may still hold supernatural beliefs if they maintain religious connections. About 28% of religious service attendees who believe in God also lean towards magical beliefs.
