It would have been better to differentiate,
e.g.
Judeochristian God
Allah
Or not mention Allah at all.
And while you might think that Allah and the God-the-Father-Christian God are unique, many Christians believe that Allah is in fact satan. A quick google will reinforce that view. ( I mean that that's what some Christians believe, not that Allah is satan, before I get jihadded to death ).
There's quite a few scientists who believe in God, so should have been a multiple selection poll.
3/10 Could do better.

Techically you can't belive in science. Belief requires faith. Proof denies faith. Science is based on proving how things work, ego you can't belive in science. ( with apologies to Douglas Adams )
It is my opinion that we are just an accidental mix of chemicals on a floating rock and when you die that's it. We have no purpose in life, as a species, beyond the propagation of the species and ultimately everything we do, knowingly or otherwise, is geared to that end."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment
