Ok, first up, employment.

I make businesses. I own two currently. I buy and sell things. I cannot answer the employment questions accurately. They need an "other" item at the least. I have, misleadingly, answered employee/admin.

*I believe the world was made
Choose one of the following answers
  • by chance, through evolution
  • by a Creator, through evolution, over millions of years
  • by a Creator, over 6 days
  • by some way that I am unsure of
The world was not made, none of those answers are correct in the slightest.

The Earth formed under the laws of physics from material pulled together by gravity. The matter involved was produced by dying suns over about 10 billion years.

*Do you believe that evil spirits are active in this world?
Choose one of the following answers
  • Yes, without a doubt
  • yes, I think so
  • uncertain
  • no, I do not think so
  • Definitely not
Where is the "I do not beleive in spirits" option? (hint: "definitely not" allows for beleif in spirits but not evil ones or ones active in this world).

*The future of my life
Choose one of the following answers
  • is unknown and unknowable
  • depends on me and my choices
  • rests with other people and circumstances
  • is set out in some cosmic plan
  • is secure in God
Requires a "depends on both my choices and circumstances". You might choose a "near enough" answer from B and C above but that would not accurately portray my actual position. It would actually be totally wrong.
I do not beleive that my choices always come good, and I do not believe circumstances cannot ever be overcome.

*How important is religion in your life?
Choose one of the following answers
  • very low
  • low
  • moderate
  • high
  • very high
Contains no "reason" qualifier. I have no religion and no interest in it. My answer from that perspective would be "totally unimportant". However, there are lots of zealots out there trying to force their authoritarian or dopey views on me using religion as a vehicle. In that respect it is highly important because I have to spend a lot of time fighting it.

Again, where is the "I don't believe in what you call spirituality" button. Its not the same answer as "very low", its in a different realm altogether.

Can't get past the first page because it won't let me leave answers blank.

Hey JF, why don't you paste the whole survey here and let us redesign it for you. Then you can go back and resurvey everyone, because I bet a lot of respondents have just hit the best of bad choices on a lot of your questions and you have lots of false data in there.
