Academy of Sciences – the percent of atheists is the highest, around 93%. Part of this is due to discrimination against [[Creation science|creation scientists]]. See: [[Suppression of alternatives to evolution]]. In addition, there is discrimination against religious conservatives in academia (see: [[Atheist indoctrination]]). Biet-Hallahmi, author of ''Atheism, A Psychological Profile'', in ''The Cambridge Companion to Atheism'', wrote, “…what these individuals [the most elite] had, in addition to their creativity and high intelligence, was a strong wish to create distance between themselves and their parents.” Dr. [[Paul Vitz]], author of'' Faith of Fatherless'', indicated that one of the common factors he observed in the leading atheists he profiled: they were all intelligent and arrogant.
