... and wanted to avoid these obvious ones:
1. Are you an atheist?
2. Do you believe that God exists?

How about asking a question that EVERY atheist will say no to, such as:
"Do you believe that the universe was created by God?"

Do you believe that the universe, world, or life were created by an intelligent entity?

Are you a cynical and bitter person who bitingly answers Christians questions on Y!A?
Do you have a seemingly funny reference to God such as sky pixie?
Are you an elitist?

1. if you don't actually ask the question you want answered then you aren't going to get good poll results, since many people don't believe in god but do not consider themselves atheists.

Work "praise god" into a sentence or too and see if it makes them squirm or even better, they might speak up about it.

"Do you believe in an invisible sky-person created the universe or do you use logic?"
You never said the poll had to be fair.

Do you believe in the supernatural?
i.e. God or gods.

I'd ask, "Why doesn't God listen to my prayers?"
That tends to draw them out...especially if it's misspelled.
