Take a survey?

Alice Shade · January 16th, 2007, 10:36 AM

I`ve been thinking, that perhaps, it could be easier to see, where everyone stands, if there was some basic information available.

This, as one can understand, is purely voluntary, as it is personal information, and could be withheld at one`s discretion.

Moreso, if one wishes to take a survey, but finds certain questions too personal/uncomfortable/unreasonable, omitting them is entirely reasonable and acceptable.
Preferably, if one omits a question, tagging "No Comment" as answer is a good idea, to clearly delineate, that this topic of inquiry is unwelcome.

Please, do NOT post your comments here. If you feel like commenting on someone`s survey, start a discussion thread at the Worldly Discussion forum, or PM the person in question.

Here`s a suggested survey. If one feels, that there are some additional questions to include, they are welcome to include them in their survey answers.

Favourite quotes:

Quote:

Originally Said by Richard Dawkins

My last vestige of "hands off religion" respect disappeared in the smoke and choking dust of September 11th 2001, followed by the "National Day of Prayer," when prelates and pastors did their tremulous Martin Luther King impersonations and urged people of mutually incompatible faiths to hold hands, united in homage to the very force that caused the problem in the first place.
