Are these religious nuts really still living in the dark ages?...it's okay, I already know the answer to that.

if you follow anything that makes you feel guilt for being yourself, or makes you hate another person for being themselves, leave it.

Do angels and ghosts exist? What about God? A new survey asked Australians, and the results may surprise you.

Damn that's disappointing, but a relatively small sample size....

A huge percentage of Australians believe everything the media tells them to. No matter how absurdly false it is.

Perhaps the Howard/Abbott/Morrison governments’ policies of tax breaks for megachurches and religious chaplains but no secular counsellors in schools worked, and in a decade’s time, it will be common knowledge that Australia is a fervently religious place, like America.

Another factor for soul belief is the research that shows the mental capacity for theory of mind results in children as young as six naturally modelling personality as separate from the body, and so jumping to the conclusion they are independent phenomena. Therfore evolution of the brain explains the myth of the soul.The fact that you can read this and imagine it was written by a person you have never met is evidence for this.

Based on biased and leading survey by an organisation with a vested interest in the results, I call BS on this.

to quote Phineaus T Barnum, "there is one born every minute" and this survey just helps to confirm that. If they had asked the respondents if they believed there was an invisible man in the sky who made the universe in 6 days, is all powerful, created the covid virus and the vaccine, will tear you apart with bears if you dont believe in him but loves you and needs your money. Then you may have gotten a different result!

If religious instruction were not allowed until the child had attained the age of reason, we would be living in a quite different world. - Hitch

Wow............. talk about massaging the questions to get the desired outcome. Most atheists would end up in the "believing" side with how those were worded. Are you open? Yes, I'm open to being wrong. BAM! Now I'm down as a believer.

A sad reflection on Australian education

Doesn’t mean much. The survey was carried out by McCrindle Research for the Centre for Public Christianity. Firstly, who is going to trust a survey on religious attitudes commissioned by a christian organisation. Secondly, McCrindle Research left/was removed from the Australian Market and Social Research Society a few years ago after an ABC (yes the same ABC that published this article) investigation exposed McCrindle Research for over exaggerating response bases. Does this mean that the survey is misleading? Nope. But i wouldn’t be trusting it until a more reputable research center conducts the same research commissioned by a more objective organisation.

An opinion piece from an author with a vested interest on a "survey" of a vanishingly small number of people with a link to the data that doesn't work from a body with, again, a vested interest. Shame, ABC, this is not news and should not be on your platform

Ask a thousand people in front of a church when the sermon ends and you get a surprisingly high belief in religion. Same as this survey. Not like the survey collection sponsor is unbiased.

0.004% of Australia was asked

Was this survey done in a country town? 😂

Ooops a daisy ...I thought scomo was his right hand man...and the media tell us ALL the facts ...how delusional of me...

A low bar, for sure, but at least this crud is labelled as opinion.

I prefer to believe in Easter bunnies who bring chocolates.🤣

1000 people is an extremely low sample size. And how can the writer say 'only 48 per cent". That figure is way too high.

McCrindle research = not a random sample

I don't have a problem with McCrindle Research at all but there's WAY TOO LITTLE info about this tiny (1,000!) cross section. The contention that contemporary narcissisism may explain belief in the concept of a 'soul' rings true.

Little declasse of ABC holding such a poll on religious beliefs at Easter. I wonder if they would do this over Ramadan? My bet would be a firm no.
