The URL is fine; the forum tags are malformed. Here’s the link you want.

The wording of the survey, itself, is kinda wonky. It asks questions in a way that is too open to interpretation; in addition, it makes rather broad assumptions in the way that it asks its questions.

I would not take this survey. Sounds like a trap for Catholics.
Also, what do questions 3 and 4 have to do with the Seal of Confession??

I took the survey. Good luck with it. I suspect though your responses will be somewhat skewed since your soliciting respondents from a Catholic forum.

How is it a trap?

It is tailored to elicit specific responses.

I didn’t see it that way.

One key problem is the structure. They require open-ended responses, which in turn require interpretation when analysing the data. It is, thus, very open to bias in terms of the interpretation of responses by the reseacher.

I did not participate. And I would not take much note of any “results” from such a survey.
