If you wish to challenge the survey for what it is then challenge the survey for what it is. If it is a measure against the earlier survey then it is a measure against the earlier survey, no more and no less.

There has been no shortage of self identifying Republicans(and libertarians) on this forum complaining about the swing towards and the growth of the religious right in the party.
There is certainly no shortage of Republican politicians and candidates calling for creationism and "intelligent design" to be taught as science.
That may well be a pretty strong indication that the survey is accurate(as far as it goes).
