I say of course they can! You can believe in whatever you want to, especially considering that Fung Shui is not a religious belief but sort of... a way of managing the energy that flows through all the objects around you so that it is positive instead of negative.
You'd basically just need to believe that everything has its own energy, and I see no reason Christians couldn't be alright with that.

Yeah, I believe so... Christianity is well known for being a "melting pot" of ideas... it is the diversity of completely contradictory notions that makes the "belief-quilt" of Christianity so colorful. (That's mine; I'm coining that word) After a hundred years, 99 percent of Christians won't realize that Feng Shui was at one time not part of the canon. Or for that matter, the Gospel of Darwin. It is vaguely reminiscent of "in God we Trust" being on our coinage. Do you know when they put that on? Or when we added "under God" into the pledge of allegiance?
In fact, I think what Jesus was doing when he overturned the moneylenders' tables at the Temple was basically just Feng Shui.

Of course you can!!!
Fengshui is not a religion. It is about the balance of Yin and Yang around us. Whether you believe it or not, its around you. People in HK, Taiwan are strong believers of this metaphysics. Even offshore banks in Singapore also believe in it. Just look at the buildings and their office setup.
Remember a good fengshui master will not recommend you to place deities in your home. Balance of Yin/Yang can be simply colours, portraits, curtains, etc. Nobody will even notice if you do not tell.

I am a born again christian. However, I belive that everything in the world must work together. I strongly belive in funshui as well as spirits and demons. The church preaches that once one dies they go on to heaven. I have seen spirits and disagree with the church at times.

It's not a religion. It is a form of meditation that emphasizes simplicity and balance of form. I especially enjoy the simplicity. So, if you want to participate in this art form, go for it. It is not in conflict with christianity.

If you can believe all the hogwash in the bible, that snakes can talk and a dead guy called Jesus lives in the sky, it doesn't take much more to believe in ancient Chinese bullcrap as well! It calls for exactly the same denial of reality!

I cant see why not? Jesus says nothing about harmonius alignment of your living room. Feng Shui isn't a religion, it's a practise of relaxation.

Why not? There are laws in place in the universe, otherwise it wouldn't exist. So why shouldn't those laws apply?
Personally, I don't believe in it, but I can't see why you can't.
