(1) In addition, there is often a layer of syncretism between Buddhism and animism.(2) In these concluding remarks, I shall return to the various issues concerning religious syncretism , which introduced this article.(3) Religious syncretism is manifest in almost every aspect of the majority of Javanese rites.(4) Embodied in the idea of religious syncretism is a continuous unfolding of two main concomitant processes: spiritual and emotional synchronicity.(5) The prevailing assumption in this use of syncretism is that world religions have been incorporated by Javanese into local versions that are somehow less authentic and more related to customary practice than religion.(6) A good framework for morphology would cover the whole territory, rather than carving out one small portion of the territory for a special Missing Form treatment, admitting syncretism everywhere else.(7) I should also mention that I loathe religious syncretism in all its forms.(8) The result is a limited understanding of basic biblical truths, leading to corrupted theology, syncretism and shallow commitment.(9) In the current literature, instances of syncretism are being increasingly cited to support particular models of morphology and feature structure.(10) Concomitantly, there has been a shift from religion to spiritualisms manifested in a trend toward syncretism and the simultaneous identification with different traditions.(11) Three religious responses are discerned: fundamentalism, syncretism , and ecumenism.(12) My sense is that one's attitude to syncretism depends largely on how one understands the dynamics of religion and human religiosity.(13) While often viewed as uniformly Pagan, there has been an increase in the diversity, expression, and syncretism of religious belief systems.(14) But how does one avoid falling into a vague religious syncretism made up of different expressions of religion?(15) For each language all instances of syncretism are recorded.(16) This is not the final word on problems with syncretism ; there are many more that I don't have the space or the insight to point out here.
