Religion is distinct. Particularly as it provides moral guidance, -even if outsiders do not agree with the moral code of a particular religion.
What's wrong with the poll. Both religions offer moral and life style guidance. Just because there are extremist movements within them it doesn't invalidate the choice. The tension between them is caused by fundamentalists in both religions believe the Palestinian lands were promised to them by God. -It's only a single notion, which does not invalidate the rest of the religion.
Edit:
That doesn't mean I don't think there isn't any point in a poll like this.
It would be more interesting if Muslims and Jews were excluded from voting.
