IAWYC but it is slightly problematic that the Philpapers survey polls the opinions of all philosophers, rather than those in a specific field. I am unsure if the opinions on current debates in metaphysics held but political philosophers will be much better than an average college graduate’s. It might be interesting to contrast the ‘lesswrong position’ on question X with the position of ‘mainstream philosophers’ who study the relevant sub-field.

You can filter the survey results by specialization. Use the AOS (Area of Specialization) drop down menu.
All I can say is that you’re not going to be happy with the ‘philosophy of religion’ statistics.
