Muslim Global Demographic Project: You Can Help!

Pew Foundation Surveys have revealed a great deal about Muslim beliefs across the globe. But the surveys are broken down by country or region. The goal of this project is simple: Use information from two major Pew surveys to compute global statistics on 15 crucial questions about Islamic beliefs and practices which relate to security, terrorism, and the threat to Western culture.

I need your help to complete this project which is already underway. The spreadsheet is almost finished thanks to our Excel Specialists. But in order to distribute the work load more evenly, a few more volunteers are needed. If you know anyone who might be interested, please pass this on. The final analysis will be published on a major website and full credit will be given to our volunteers.
