Thank you for making such a survey. I don't know about everybody else, but I know that I have certainly been curious about the makeup of such beliefs here on ATS for quite sometime. Great idea!

At the end of the survey it says the results will be shown on May 19th ????

Ooops I see that some else has noted it too but will leave this as reinforcement!

Questions are very nicely put together. Good survey and one I enjoyed partaking in.

Liking the survey system as well, brings up some interesting demographics. Is the raw survey data available to us mere mortals?

The date survey results are to be posted is currently evolving.

They should have made the date December 21st 2012.

That would have spawned a whole lot of new ATS conspiracy threads

I was kind of dissapointed to find there isn't any questions asking you if an intelligent life form from another planet helped shape us in some way. Other than that, this is a cool idea for a thread and I'm interested to see the results.

Off topic- breaking bad is a great show just started season 4

Interesting and good survey.
I found it difficult to use "strongly" on anything considering there are a lot of factors involved, and being one without belief, to strongly agree or disagree means you somehow have "supernatural" knowledge.

So, I am willing to bet (a very small sum) that creationists will have more spikes in the strongly disagree catagory than evolutionists have in the strongly agree catagory (if people use evolution as it should be, a pointer verses a religion)...but ya, interested in the results overall.

Nice one.

I think that was there as part of the extraterrestrial design thingie.

I think I was neutral on that one.

Oh boy!

The results should be very interesting for sure...

Its not a topic I reply on, but I do find it very enlightening to read up on

Actually, one question I would have been interested in is, the cremo theory...that mankind has risen and fallen over and over for billions of years now (mankind, or just an intelligent race of some sort). Its a interesting senario.

Maybe a survey in the future about hidden history or some such...the past wiped out by TPTB in order to create a short narration or some such...donno, the subject fascinates me though.


Also, a checklist of the typical conspiracy beliefs...bigfoot, lochness monster, reptilian skinjobs, etc...

Thank you for including Question 12. I've always thought evolution could've been the means by which God created us. Nothing in any scripture says how God created Adam and all the beasts and the plants, just that Adam was built out of the dust of the earth. Amoeba are built from dust too. God has all the time in the universe to wait for something like evolution to produce results, and if evolution was the best method TO produce human beings, why wouldn't God use it as a tool to make us, huh? Yet everyone's so sure that only one or the other can be correct... and I think the reason for that is that people all want to be right. If everyone's right, nobody wins and nobody loses, and some people don't want that. They want to make others look stupid because it makes themselves look smarter, not for the advancement of science or theology. Science and theology are simply two vantage points from which we observe the exact same thing: our creator. As soon as people wrap their heads around that truth, we'll all be a lot better off, and the advancement of pure, true knowledge can finally proceed. After all; how likely were we to ever develop communication satellites while we believed the Earth was flat, hmm?

A nicely thought out survey. Unbiased and covered a lot of ground in just a few questions

I wish more surveys were like this one
