Help Sam Harris With His Unbelief
Sam Harris is preparing to do an fMRI study on belief and disbelief, and needs help in determining the stimuli. You can help him by answering the surveys linked to on his homepage.
He only wants responses from people who are either dedicated Christians or atheists. I’m not sure if I can respond. It all depends on what is meant by the word “dedicated”.
Stumble it!

I took a survey! It was interesting…

It was unbeliefable.

I would have taken a survey, but I’m an agnostic so I just would have had to have answered “Don’t Know” for any of the questions about belief. That probably wouldn’t have been terribly helpful. Aw, what the heck–I’m gonna take one anyway! Right NOW!

Science is all about the what the heck.

That’s why I was reluctant to do it, but I ended up doing it and putting “I don’t know” for most things. I wouldn’t label myself an agnostic exactly. I guess I’m somewhere between “Hopeful Agnostic” and “Skeptical Christian”.
