both are way too broad as they dont demonstrate a knowledge of what "atheism is"

ie its just pure description and reliant on other peoples opinions....

eg q2...(reading your question as it is) atheism really doesnt have beliefs (social yes but.... are they "atheist"?) as such .: your first part of your report essentially will be one line...they dont!!, second part what is the nature of atheism? What do you mean by this? ie again, is it a social thing? How do you show its "atheist"? What are you going to use as your example?? A typical teenager?? or a real atheist?? ie someone who would deny the presence or being or God even if there was infallible proof ie they want nothing to do with it.... in theory, a real atheist wouldnt speak to you as its for a religious task..........


IMO, they are way too broad and wishy washy! Its needs to be more specific and concrete

Not trying to be harsh, just honest........

technically you can only do "one area" ie a or b or c not a combination...
Your question above is again too broad. Why not do something like "what makes atheism popular to to its adherants?" (needs a better word but...) or "Why would someone choose atheism?" or go with a hypothesis of " No-religion is increasing in popularity in Australia" (with reference to the census)

Again, these are really bad questions but at least they are a little more specific......!
LOL
