Hi Wes,
When I attempted to click through from today's Libertarian email to the poll on religion, I got an error page indicating there was a tracker being used:
chrome://ublock0/content/document-blocked.html?details=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwOi8vY2xpY2suaWNwdHJhY2suY29tL2ljcC9yZWxheS5waHA/cj04NTUzMDAzNyZtc2dpZD02MDg4MjUmYWN0PThCQkkmYz0xMTE1MTA4JmRlc3RpbmF0aW9uPWh0dHAlM0ElMkYlMkZ3d3cubHAub3JnJTJGd2hhdC1yZWxpZ2lvbi1hcmUtbGliZXJ0YXJpYW5zJTJGIiwiaG4iOiJjbGljay5pY3B0cmFjay5jb20iLCJkbiI6ImljcHRyYWNrLmNvbSIsImZjIjoiWzAsNjIsXCJpY3B0cmFjay5jb21cIl0iLCJmcyI6Inx8aWNwdHJhY2suY29tXiJ9
What type of tracking are these emails employing? I do not think we should be tracking people's clicks without their consent.
On the poll itself (I went directly to LP.org and found it there at https://www.lp.org/what-religion-are-libertarians/), I have a recommendation for an additional response category – Transhumanist.
This may not ultimately be the most precise term for my own religious views, which also encompass non-aggression and decentralism/individualism, but as a "none of the above" respondent, I feel it would fit me better than any of the terms currently listed, and suspect there may be a few others who feel similarly. For anyone curious about the religious aspects of transhumanism, this page has some good material:

Finally, I would also urge that the poll response choices be listed in alphabetical order (with the exception of leaving "Decline to state" and "None of the above" at the bottom), rather than all the Christian options being listed first.
Love & Liberty,
