I started to take your survey and stopped. I did not feel that answering your questions could best represent my beliefs. The questions were multi leveled and I could not agree of disagree with most of them on basis of the curve placed to mix religion, political, and moral beliefs.

I truely hope you do not feel you can get a true meaning from it unless you better seperate your questions and make them individual as opposed to forcing one strong belief to answer for another. I believe I am a man of God but feel your beliefs are different from mine and contradict mine is several ways. How is this a corrections/law enforcement survey when truely it is a statement based on religion and political views.

I do not mean to offend your views, but I feel I can not answer these questions to justify your personal views.
