There has been much speculation about death experience's impact on people's religious orientations and behavior. The most common hypothesis linking the religious domain with death experience has it that death experience leads to greater religiosity as one way for people to gain comfort. Data from the 1984 National Opinion Research Center (NORC) General Social Survey are used to test this expectation. Results suggest that death experience is related to greater levels of religious behavior and stronger religious orientations; however, the relationships are rather weak. Results are discussed in light of these findings
