Has anyone got a rough idea as to the ratio of believer(in any God)/non-believers amongst the current contributing membership at EvC?

I dunno...can we do a poll? My rough (and very uneducated) guess is about 80% non-believer and 20% believer. Many believers are not creationists, however.

My hunch is that it is a little less lopsided then that but just that many on the "believers" side are less vocal.

believer?
I'd love it if there was a God. I'd love it if unicorns ran free and pooped skittles.

Belivers/Non-Belivers cast your votes here!
Per the OP, please state your position. Just a simple "beliver" will suffice.
As for me.

Ain't that just like us Americans Brian?
We complain and moan about the powers that be. But when it comes to the polls, nobody shows up to have their voices heard
Comeon folks! There are 87 people on this site, no one want's to weigh in?

Maybe they are waiting for the Party Political Broadcasts before making their minds up.
I like your new pic, but can I just say that you look much better with makeup on.

privacy please
I prefer to keep my religious views private, so I'll allow them to appear ambiguous.

I'm not sure that it makes any difference but I also think it's pretty obvious from peoples postings what their position might be. 3

Re: Belivers/Non-Belivers cast your votes here!
Ya, but I think we just wanna get a rough idea of the ratio here. If we can get a good sample size, we can make a pretty good estimate.
