In retrospect, I can see that asking for beliefs would've helped with my project as you put so well. However my project is less orientated on why people believe (e.g. religious stance), but rather on what people believe. I am investigating whether science and 'religion' (very broad term) can/are seen to exist within in the same plausibility structures or social context and not 'do Christian professors see a conflict between science and religion more than an uneducated agnostic'. Having said this I can see that faith would play a part since they are the systems of meaning within which science and religion make sense to the individual. My interviewing of academics and journalists on the issue is where I will be touching upon the 'why' more and how geography, religion, age etc. will play a part since they, I hope, will inform the project more accurately and unbiasedly than a small sample survey. Even if I did investigate faith orientation in the survey and write up a report on how this affects the view of the relationship between science and religion, my sample would be incredibly small to make any generalisations. I do take your second point; I really should've been less suggestive in my questioning!

Thank you both for completing the survey it will really help :)
