Religion vs Science study help

Religion vs Science study help
Hello, my name is Michael and I am a post graduate student currently performing research into the psychology of religion for my Msc with the Open University. My research is in measuring similarities and differences between scientific and religious thought. In this study I am looking at levels of open-mindedness between those who have religious belief and those who do not. I am in need of participants and I was wondering if there would be any chance of anyone helping me out by taking my survey? It only takes 5 minutes to complete and it is completely anonymous. If you would like to look at the survey this is the link:

I really would appreciate greatly any help you could give me. If you have any questions please feel free to email me at [email protected] or post here . Thank you for your time.

I would start with looking up the word "delusion" first.

Science is the thought of an ape that is a man. Religion is the thought of a ape that is an ape.

Scientific thought pursues evidence to come to conclusions, religious thought creates conclusions and ignores evidence. Scientific thought is based on what can be empirically proven, religious thought is without a logically consistent rational basis.

I took the survey and like most I found it to restrictive.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

I got as far as #15 and gave up.

"There are two kinds of people in this world: those who are for the truth and those who are against the truth. "


You forgot about people who invent a "truth" in order to delude themselves and oppress others.

I didn't finish it either, because it keeps talking about beliefs like they are all similar. I may be convinced one day that Iron Maiden was more influencial than Metallica. However i'll never be convinced that freedom of speech is a plight on society or that small aliens are controlling Obama from the inside.
