| | Syncretism |
 | | Syncretism is the process by which elements of one religion are assimilated into another religion resulting in a change in the fundamental tenets or nature of those religions. | | | Syncretism of the Christian gospel occurs when critical or basic elements of the gospel are replaced by religious elements from the host culture. | | | It often results from a tendency or attempt to undermine the uniqueness of the gospel as found in the Scriptures or the incarnate Son of God. |

| | Talk:Syncretism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | This needs more on syncretism in the mainstream world religions, which is the sense the term is often used by religious scholars. | | | Grouping some religions under the word "syncretic" might be useful for some purposes, but it seems to me that it's too ambiguous to convey any actual information about a particular religion, without specifying precisely what characteristics of the religion it refers to. | | | What "syncretic" does do, what it's notorious for doing when applied to a particular religion, is to convey a feeling that predisposes people to discount or devalue that religion, without conveying any actual information about it. |

| | Syncretism was often utilized in the study of Buddhism in Asia and is an important category in the history of religions, but there are few studies about syncretic phenomena in western countries, where the influence of Protestant Buddhism is more emphasized. | | | Tibetan Buddhism is normally described as a result of the syncretism between the Tantric Buddhist stream and the local Tibetan religion (Bon). | | | The presence of syncretism in the history of Buddhism is frequently mentioned with regard to its adaptation in Asia,(29) although its presence in and explanatory value for Buddhist practice in western countries has been little researched. |

| | The religion is not syncretic but a parallel can be made with several religions. | | | A simplified interpretation of syncretism refers to this cultural process as a "fusion" between the African Ayoba religion and the Catholic religion. | | | For decades scholars have documented and classified the Ayoba/Lukumi religion as a syncretic religion. |

| | Syncretism |
| | Syncretism is the belief in the merging of various schools of thought. | | | It is especially associated with the attempt to merge, analogize or assert the underlying unity of several originally discrete traditions, especially in religion and mythology. | | | More recent religious systems that exhibit marked syncretism include Vodun and Santeria, which analogize various Yoruba and other African gods to the Roman Catholic pantheon of saints. |

| | Syncretism |
| | Although syncretism is primarily about religion and contextualisation about culture, in practice the categories of religion and culture are deeply intertwined. | | | Given the belief of Christians in incarnation and the importance of the translation of its scriptures into vernacular languages, mixing with the symbols and practices of cultures and their religious expression is part of conversion and contextualisation. | | | In the nineteenth century syncretism shifts in meaning and usage to the mixing of religious ideas and names of deities in the study of Greek and Roman religion. |

| | Syncretism is a theological issue of belief and faith, not merely the wedding of religious or cultural forms and objects. | | | Syncretism, whether in an Anglo church on Sunday morning, or a Native ceremony, is the belief that unscriptural "parallel truths" can be interchangeably mixed with the doctrines of justification, righteousness, atonement, holiness, redemption, sanctification, salvation, etc. because they are the same thing. | | | Syncretism says mutually incompatable religious beliefs can be combined together with Biblical Christian faith to create a new system of religious belief |

| | Syncretism and religious market (CESNUR 99) |
| | Syncretism is usually assumed in Italian literature on Sociology of Religion as a synonymous of confusion and considered signal of distance from the orthodox religion -- in Italy this being identified with Catholicism. | | | Objective of the research was to analyse believing, feelings, worships, referred to the supernatural which express inside and outside the discipline and orthodoxy of Catholic church. | | | Yet, I would remind what has been said about the composition of syncretism in beliefs in reincarnation and energetic divine: a large part of those adopting them also adopt atheistic or indifferent positions on the supernatural. |

| | beyond orientalism |
| | That the syncretic urge is essentially a fictional impulse is apparent even in the tropes that are employed in narratives of religious identity, such as interracial romance, conversion, discovery of lost familial roots, travel, and the return to the point of origin. | | | At the same time, in a contrary perception, syncretism is viewed as a product of state formation itself, and more akin to culture in its supplantation of both religious belief and religious ideology and in its disinterested, universalizing aspect. | | | Hence the psychological ambivalence to syncretism: the narrator of Ghosh's work wills himself to deny that differences exist, yet at the same time he is subliminally aware of their continuous presence, as is evident in his resentment of the Egyptian villagers' questions about cremation, cow worship, and circumcision in Hindu society. |

| | The Syncretism of Egyptian Gods |
| | Syncretism softens henotheism, the concentration of worship on a single god, and stops it from turning into monotheism, for ultimately syncretism means that a single god is not isolated from the others: in Amun one apprehends and worships also Re, or in Harmachis other forms of the sun god. | | | Specifically, syncretism means that the ancient Egyptians recognized Re in all of these very different gods as soon as they encountered them as creator gods. | | | When the sun god once again appears on the morning horizon, he is no longer Osiris, though according to the Amduat, the deity leaves behind an "Image" that is the outward shell of the god who was Re and Osiris in one. |

| | The Baha'i Faith and Syncretism |
| | If Baha'is claimed their religion is syncretic the description would be useful; if syncretism were absent in the histories of other religions the description would be useful; but to state the Baha'i Faith is a syncretism and imply that the others are not is a hasty generalization. | | | If by "syncretism" a scholar means the Baha'i Faith is a simplistic mixture of ideas from other religions, with no core of truths that are its own, this is a hasty generalization, and often is partly based on inadequate explanations of the Baha'i religion by its members. | | | If by "syncretism" a scholar means the Baha'is themselves believe their religion is a blending of the best from other religious traditions, this understanding of Baha'i self-identity is incorrect. |

| | The determination of syncretism in a particular local context cannot be simply left in the hands of powerful outside interests; the local community must be empowered to take their role in keeping watch over themselves and their doctrines. | | | Examples of syncretism in this sense range from the worship of materialism in modern Western churches to the use of spiritistic power and protection in African churches, from the rituals of the Night of the Dead in Latin America to the continuance of untransformed ancestral practices in Asian Christian households. | | | No other statement in the OT so concisely summarizes both the nature of syncretism and Israel's participation in it than that of 2 Kings 17:41: "Even while these people were worshiping the LORD, they were serving their idols" (NIV). |
