A big thank you to all of you who have completed the survey so far.
And thank you too to leavingwt, Soledad, Phizzy, MrsJones, Dazed but not Confused, Tec, Exwhyzee, Hortensia, Cofty, NoStonecutters
Soledad - thanks for your comments. Yes, before showing us that we could make a survey on Google the teacher handed us each a stack of paper surveys that had been filled in and we had to enter all the data into excel question by question. You should try a survey - as the answers are submitted they automatically appear in spreadsheet form - it's really funny to watch. And it's good to know that Saturday morning feeling doesn't diminish! I love it. Sunday mornings too!
Phizzy - sorry if it wasn't too clear - it was more belief in God - but for the latter questions I don't really mind how it was interpreted.
Exwhyzee - "learning about mass extinction events" - I added a link to wiki, which unfortuneately I couldn't make clickable. Here it is again http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extinction_event#Major_extinction_events. Apart from the dinosaurs, these mass extinction events are something we don't really learn about in the borg. Very simply put (as I'm no scientist, but the subject does interest me) : there were several periods in history when large percentages of life were just wiped out and went extinct.
Cofty - if I could guess, then this wouldn't be an anonymous survey
NoStonecutters - Aw, I'm sorry. Well, your thread was in my shortlist...Ok, I'm going to try something. I'll be right back.

How about some results?
We've had 35 replies so far, which I think is great. Thanks everyone!
In answer to the questions "Do you believe in God?" and "Would you classify yourself as any of the following?", this is what we've got :
I will post more results here as (and if) they keep coming, and here's for hoping - if we get near the 100 mark, then I'll put the results in a new thread! That would be great...
Have a good Sunday everyone!
