Ok, I haven't been reading this newsgroup for all that long, but I wonder what kind of people read it, and post to it? Has anybody else wondered this? Has there ever been a survey? Well, here is the first net.religion public survey (first since I have been on the net, anyway). All questions have an "other" type catagory, so no one can accuse me of forgetting anyone. And (are you ready for the lie?!) I'll post the results to the net. Please have responses to me by 20 Feb. Try to answer all questions; but if any offend you, omit them. 1. Basic religious preference (include variety; i.e., Baptist or Methodist, Tantric or Zen, etc.): a. Christian b. Jewish c. Buddhist d. Hindu e. Moslem f. Athiest g. Agnostic h. Other (specify; if there are enough I will include it in the survey) 2. What was your religious upbringing (use answers in question #1)? 3. How long have you subscribed to this religion? 4. I post to net.religion: a. often b. sometimes c. rarely d. never e. other 5. What is your basic attitude toward other religions? a. they are all wrong and deserve death b. they are all wrong and need to be zealously converted c. for the most part, they are wrong and need correction d. they are partly wrong and partly right, just misguided e. they are all right (to some extent) f. to each his own (don't care) g. other 6. What is your opinion about net.religion? a. serves no useful purpose b. some pearls, but mostly swine c. half good, half bad d. useful forum of discussion, with some reservations e. excellent medium to discuss religious matters f. other Any other comments? -- David Norris :-) -- uw-beaver!ssc-vax!david
