Ever wonder what actual philosophers (and me) think about philosophical issues? This item posts the results of a survey of 3226 respondents, including 1803 philosophy faculty members and/or PhDs and 829 philosophy graduate students. The results are fascinating, though it is to my dismay I sometimes find my answer in the group of 2.9 percent of respondents. I guess I would have preferred a more international sample, and a wider representation of tradition (the respondents were overwhelmingly from the analytic tradition). No doubt future surveys, with a wider sample group, will be equally fascinating.
