<p>I think "Deist" was the most mentioned options that was not
included in the poll. <br>
</p>
<p>Here's some of the feedback we receive by email (I didn't include
all the Deist comments):</p>
<ol>
<li>Could you please add "Two House Messianic Judaism" on the next
poll? <br>
</li>
<li>I was raised as a Christian Scientist, but am now agnostic.</li>
<li>Interesting poll. I would have chosen nontheistic if it was
available.</li>
<li>Well, I took the survey, but I noticed a missing group,
Congregational. <br>
</li>
<li>I am a Deist, which is not a choice on your poll.</li>
<li>You did not include Quakers 'Society of Friend's</li>
<li>I would like to see "None" as a choice. "None of the Above"
implies a religion is still followed, but is just not listed. <br>
</li>
<li>Not to make a big deal out of it, but why only one choice on
religion? I'm a Jewish Atheist</li>
<li>Correct. “Congress shall [not]." Technically, the states can.</li>
<li>You did not list secular humanist.</li>
<li>Our founding fathers were largely Deist, as am I, yet it is
not a choice. <br>
</li>
<li>My specific religion was not explicitly listed on the poll,
which is Christian Science, or Church of Christ, Scientist. I
selected the "other Christian" for the poll. <br>
</li>
<li>"Pentecostal" is misspelled as "Pentacostal."</li>
<li>None of your business. Am I being detained?</li>
<li>Atheism and agnosticism aren't religions. Where did you get
that idea--from an old Star Trek episode?</li>
<li>I know that the philosophical / religious matrix of Thelema is
a very obscure tradition and that a certain personality in the
LP may have soured it's taste in a lot of our mouths, but as a
long-standing member of OTO--a Thelemic organization with roots
in Freemasonry--</li>
<li>I consider myself an agnostic Christian so I checked "Other
Christian."</li>
<li>I’d like to request that you add Scientology to your list. I
think it’s the fastest growing religion these days.</li>
<li><span>You need to add "Non-religious" as a choice.</span></li>

<p>Elizabeth, I don't know why you didn't receive the email. That
fact is frustrating. <br>

<p>The religion poll email was sent around 1:17 PM eastern.</p>
<p>An email with subject "Limiting government power, freedom . . "
was sent a 5:29 PM eastern.</p>
<p>Email deliver-ability is a constant challenge. <br>

<p>Hmm, I didn't get an LP email today, and am curious as to
what the poll looks like. <br>

<div>Hi Wes,</div>
<div> </div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>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:</div>
<div> </div>
<div><a href="chrome://ublock0/content/document-blocked.html?"
moz-do-not-send="true">chrome://ublock0/content/document-blocked.html?</a>details=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwOi8vY2xpY2suaWNwdHJhY2suY29tL2ljcC9yZWxheS5waHA/cj04NTUzMDAzNyZtc2dpZD02MDg4MjUmYWN0PThCQkkmYz0xMTE1MTA4JmRlc3RpbmF0aW9uPWh0dHAlM0ElMkYlMkZ3d3cubHAub3JnJTJGd2hhdC1yZWxpZ2lvbi1hcmUtbGliZXJ0YXJpYW5zJTJGIiwiaG4iOiJjbGljay5pY3B0cmFjay5jb20iLCJkbiI6ImljcHRyYWNrLmNvbSIsImZjIjoiWzAsNjIsXCJpY3B0cmFjay5jb21cIl0iLCJmcyI6Inx8aWNwdHJhY2suY29tXiJ9</div>
<div> </div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>What
type of tracking are these emails employing? I do not think
we should be tracking people's clicks without their consent.</div>
<div> </div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>On
the poll itself (I went directly to <a href="http://LP.org"
moz-do-not-send="true">LP.org</a> and found it there at <a
href="https://www.lp.org/what-religion-are-libertarians/"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.lp.org/what-religion-are-libertarians/</a>),
I have a recommendation for an additional response category
– <strong>Transhumanist</strong>. </div>
<div> </div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>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:</div>
<div> </div>

moz-do-not-send="true">http://www.metanexus.net/essay/toward-transhumanist-theology</a></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>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.</div>
