Issue with religious questions
How would an agnostic person, atheist or "nothing in particular" who hates all religion with a passion (basically an irreligious fundamentalist) answer these and get their true score when answering "agree/strongly agree" GIVES YOU SOME TRADITIONALISM?!
@SouthernWolf95 I guess it's about "spreading my religious views". If one's "religious view" is that all religion sucks then spreading that view is not traditionalistic.
Well an anti-religious view is hardly a religious view. So you'd strongly disagree.
You would solve that issue by taking off your fedora and growing up past 16 years old.

I don't see it that way. Being agnostic or atheist can be seen as a religious view or religious believe. To believe in no god could be considered a believe. And to believe that you cannot proof whether there is a god could be also considered a believe.
I would definitely disagree with that viewpoint, but as it exists I guess it is right to clarify the question perhaps.
Well, I have to say that in the introduction part of Wikipedia (religion) it states agnostics and atheists are religiously unaffiliated which would mean it's not a religious believe. At the same time is says there is no scholary consensus about what constitutes a religion.
Maybe an easy solution is to just add a not in the question (includes or excludes agnosticism and atheism). I think as it's meant now it should exclude them. So atheists and agnostics should vote to not spread the religious believe.
While writing this I think it might be easier to change the statement completely into:
"Every person should have a religion."
This means the same thing and cannot be misunderstood and is more straight forward.
