Poll: Obama supporters and their religious beliefs.

[ClintonTyree]

I'm interested in gathering information about Obama supporters and their religious beliefs, if any. Anonymity is assured, of course, unless you wish to comment.

The choices:

[shadowknows69]

1. Other:Pagan

[stellanoir]

2. You may want to consider adding a "spiritualist" option.

There are plenty of people who consider themselves to be really spiritual who don't ascribe to any of the traditional faiths or conventional dogmas.

[ClintonTyree]

Good point.

will do.

[LWolf]

3. I won't vote, since I'm not an Obama supporter.

My religious beliefs are a non-organized soup of buddhism, hinduism, various earth-based religions, and the universal concepts that bridge most faiths: the golden rule, for example.

[H2O Man]

4. Other n/t

[JTFrog]

5. Not voting. Just wondering about this:

Anonymity is assured, of course, unless you wish to comment.

Even if it's just Skinner and/or the admins/mods who can see it, it's not anonymous.

9. You think DU is like the Bush administration?

I don't think Skinner et al. are sitting around just waiting to see who's affiliated with what religion. But hey, you never know! :shrug:

[JTFrog]

10. I'm once again just stating fact.

Skinner has posted about it. People have been TS'd for creating a poll and/or voting a particular option in said poll.

I'm sure this one is of no concern to them, however...

It's just a small drop in a large bucket of acceptance drowning the population. We are expected to believe that anonymity is assured, when in fact, it's just a tolerated level of non anonymity and one hopes that any such information would never end up in the wrong hands. But surely no one has ever been persecuted for their religion, right?

6. Hindu-Buddhist/Taoist Christian ...so far

I don't know how many others will not be able to choose only one of the above. People tend to be pretty complex these days.

7. I think its obvious what I am hehe

[Colobo]

11. Agnostic.

12. It is a United Church of Christ which I am a member off.

I just do not go any more but one has to love a church that likes weather vanes on the steeples in place of a cross and are still fighting about a cross inside the church some places. It is the old Congressional Church and some will not even get so formal as to join the United Church of Christ group. I get that from my mother who was a deacon in one of those Congressional Churches that would not join into the larger group. Odd I have run into men From India that are members of this church so that is where they must do a great deal of their work. It is not very large as Churches go now. Course just about every NE town has one. Hard to find them in the South or I always had trouble, in the 60's finding them, Most will tell me that they are 'black' churches as they did have a lot to do with slaves and getting rid of that stuff. You would laugh why I stopped going. I moved and got into a new church and every one wanted Bush as President and I just gave up. I could not take it.
