In fact, followers of Buddha developed his original insights into a complex model of human psychology long before we applied Greek terms to the study of human thinking processes.

Raw story does a good job of providing information on the makeup of polls and the questions-as-asked. While more info on the interview process would allow readers to better judge the quality of poll results, this description goea way beyond the usual "representative sample" blessing.

Apparently the authors claim that anyone not agreeing with their venom is prejudiced in some way. Freedom of speech allows one to voice their opinion. It does not insure that anyone cares to listen.
