Zogby Poll Questions - Religion |
|
I receive emails from Zogby periodically to participate in one of his stupid little polls. Here are some of the questions I just saw on a Zogby poll...
I believe God is angry and will soon begin punishing sinners in ever greater numbers -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I would prefer to work, live, socialize, and send my children to school with people who share my religious beliefs -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I believe that only someone who believes in my God will be saved -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The scriptures of my religion are inerrant (without error) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I believe that the end of the world is near and the final day of judgment will occur in my lifetime -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am too busy meeting my family's basic needs like food or shelter to worry about most other things --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My country is never wrong -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I would fight for my nation before I would fight for my God -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- American culture is inherently superior to cultures elsewhere in the world -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am not interested in travelling abroad because everything I need is here
Would you say that generally, it is more important for you to be like your peers or different from your peers? Like my peers Different from my peers Not sure
Which of the following people comes closest to being your hero? Pope John Paul II The Dalai Lama Senator John McCain President Barack Obama Former President Ronald Reagan Rev. Billy Graham Mother Theresa Secretary Hillary Clinton Bill Gates Rush Limbaugh Sarah Palin Bill Cosby Kobe Bryant Bono Michael Moore Al Gore A family member None of the above I have no heroes Not sure
My answer was "I have no heroes"
What a joke for a survey

2. That's what they're polling for...jingos and xenos. |
|
They could be measuring how widespread those attitudes are.

:rofl:
I took it a couple of days ago. Filled out the boiler plate at the beginning of all the Zogby polls ("are you registered to vote," "religious affiliation," etc) then jumped immediately from, like, 7% finished to 91% finished and nothing left but the exit boilerplate questions ("are you a union member" and so on). I figured I'd been selected out by something I'd answered in the first part. Now I'll bet it was my response that I'm an atheist.
