If there's a good way to put a comment space inside of a poll, I am too much of a luser to know what is is. I figured that anyone who said "other" and who felt like elaborating could always use the regular comments - which, in fact, you did, so clearly I was right, ne? ;)
I didn't include panentheism for two reasons: (1) Panentheism, unlike its older cousin pantheism, can be combined with any of animism, monotheism, henotheism, or polytheism quite nicely, and thus didn't need a space of its own nearly as badly as several other things, and (2) I ran out of room in the poll (LJ will only let you include so many entries) and had to cut several things out that had such overlaps (polyagnosticism and monoagnosticism also got cut, for instance). I'm both a panentheist and a polytheist, too, but the fact that I'm the former doesn't make the latter an incorrect descriptor, IMNSHO.
I have seen polls with comment space, but never having done one myself, I don't know how to tell you to do it. But, of course, you were right, and I'm guessing most of us who take the poll will have no problem with elaboration in the comments, if we feel the need. I guess I am just so attached to my own views that I wanted to share them, is all. Imagine that! LOL No criticism intended, sweetie, I hope you know that.
