Yes, please let us know how we compare.
I think your poll is worded in a way that makes it misleading. I know a whole lot of people who believe vaguely in a god or higher power of some sort who definitely do not consider themselves to be religious. I think you need a few more options. At the very least:
Wow, I think about this alot. I really, really want to believe in a higher power, or in God. But then again sometimes I think that it is just a nice concept, kind of like Santa or the Easter Bunny. Where is the proof?
Recently two little girls were murdered in our community...things like this really shake my belief in a higher power (GOD). But yet...I WANT to believe. Crazy, aren't I?
God never promised to remove evil from this world- it's out there and it's real! He even said that we all have the right to free will- free choice- for good or for evil. LOTS of people make BAD choices which do effect others. But the promise is that if you will turn to him and REALLY believe that He can use even bad/evil things for good. (The first examples that come to mind are John Walsh and medical advances that come from others who have suffered- as in "Lorenzo's Oil".) Ok, I'm done....steps down.
