I've just been asked (like 10 seconds ago) to create a survey for an assignment so I can collect and analyse data. Rather than get up and go outside, I'd rather just ask you guys! Can you please take this 10 question survey on gaming and religion. I would very much appreciate your contribution.

As I need at least 50 people to take it, I am actually going to be going around town as well so I'm not going to be able to thank you guys just yet! But thanks in advance for those who decide to participate.

You can be as descriptive as you want.
