poll

Okay, here we go, even if you end up in another thread after you vote. Should TAM stay in Vegas a year or two more, or should it be moved elsewhere? Should there be more than one TAM a year, if Randi could make it to more than one? Can they get the staff to put it all together? Should they...

There are a lot of wackey beliefs out there. Some are so damn odd that they seem either completely contrived or the work of the Trilateral Commission. What I would like to do is get at what we here think is the oddest. I ask you to vote for the oddest belief system. This might be based on...

I thought it might be interesting to get an idea of what people think about Kramer not posting on the boards anymore because he is the Challenge Administrator.

A 2001 EU poll on astrology (and other things) 16,029 people polled, averaging about 1,000 per Member State. 52.7% of Europeans thought that Astrology was "rather scientific". 77.9% of Europeans thought that Astronomy was "rather scientific". Surprisingly, it didn't really matter how old...

Okay, how did you vote? Please don't use the poll unless you voted or are certain to vote in today's General Election; those who can't/won't vode today but want to see the results should use the Planet X option. :D

http://www.theage.com.au/news/Iraq/Iraq-hits-Bush-popularity/2005/04/26/1114462013839.html What this tells me is that Americans are quite happy to fight terrorists who attack them, which is their right, but not with the invasion of Iraq. Eg, Saddam is still free, but the US is tied up in Iraq...

I also want to get a consensus on if we should limit our endeavor to political books? My inclination is we should simply because that in itself is a large and diverse topic. At the same time, I don't see why suggestions and reviews of non-political material couldn't be included, even if it...

I don't believe it. MSNBC's web site is running a POLL on the cause of Autism. I weep. IIR

The "Successful Homeopathic Trial" thread has now been viewed nearly 6,000 times; it seems quite likely that hundreds of lurkers have been following it. I'm interested in how the thread has influenced the views of these lurkers (IMO, people who have participated in the thread will be unable to...

OK, let us be honest. These are mutually exclusive choices. For those rocket scientists that looked for true meaning in my Peterson poll, let me be specific..... Who would you trust? Generally, with your money, taking your hot significant other to Vegas, whose advice would you take? All...

F'd it up, try again

Verdict at 4:30 EST. Poll closes before that.

I know I'm asking for it, but I'm curious about the makeup of people's opinions on the events of November 22, 1963. I'd like to tally opinion on a few basic possibilities, and have people post the most prominent facts (or believed facts) that made up their mind... I'm talking about the short...

The pdf file and subsequent reasonably intelligent discussion is here: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2004/11/11/192031/96 This is a rushed but serious academic paper, which concludes that given the historical accuracy of exit polls the odds of the discrepancy between the exit polls and the...

It's funny the things you come across while reading the Tuesday Morning Quarterback on www.nfl.com Take this: There's a link there, but it requires registration. I think TMQ stated my feelings on this one best with Remind us of anyone we know? (coughLucianarchycough1inChristcough) ETA...

Well, fess up. Please be specific, and if you're not registered to vote in the United States and/or didn't vote, please don't participate in the poll. Thanks.

Regardless of whether or not you're sceptical on other issues do you believe in life after death or a spirit dimension :

The floating a battleship in a gallon of water idea seemed very wrong to me to begin with. I had to change my mind, I'm interested in what convinces other people. Hence the poll I had to conduct an experiment. None of the explanations in the thread actually convinced me, and I preferred to...

I am letting you all know about this cause you guys have a right to know about it and I feel you all should let people know what you think of some of these "Preachers" on TV. http://rateitall.com/topic.aspx?TopicID=782&show=all why I am telling you this is you guys have a right to know about...

As another silly attempt to prove nothing in particular, let's see if we can break down some genericised points for a poll. Check each box that applies. Explanations/longer versions: 1. Do you believe there are any gods? 2. Do you believe that gods have any direct influence on your life, or...

Not that it matters, but here's a better constructed poll, per belief system than "Christian or Atheist". The categories were taken from: http://www.adherents.com/Religions_By_Adherents.html Some were combined, because I couldn't get enough to fit. If you're offended by a combination, well...

Let's say that I went for an annual medical checkup, and the doctor wanted to know if I had a particular disease that affects one out of every thousand people. To check, he performed a blood test that is known to be about 99% accurate. The test results came back positive. The doctor concluded...

I'm interested in the Bush/Kerry support split between Americans and non-Americans. Obviously non-Americans can't actually vote, but I am interested in who they would want to see elected. ;)

Hamas has claimed the US shares the blame and as such shall be dealt with. While laughable, in my opinion, would a threat of this nature allow the US to deal with the group as a terror threat to the US? I mean we could see the end of them in a few months which really wouldn't hurt anyone if...

US feared by foes and friends PEW Research Centre I've never heard of PEW, so I've included a link to the survey findings. If the survey is accurate, it demonstrates what the peace crowd have been saying all along: the war ain't gonna do nuthin' for Yankland's image on the world stage.

Poll This reflects my personal observations, too.

61% of nationwide adults surveyed believe the literal account of Biblical creation. 60% believe the literal story of Noah's flood. I'm surrounded by morons. I choose to attack in all directions.
