I think it's just that the scientists who do not believe in God have the thinking that if you can't see it, then it can't be real, or that they lack the depth of thought to actually believe in something. It is almost like they are intimidated by something that they can not grasp or fully understand. Either that or they don't have the full facts on the Bible and the evidence supporting it. --[[User:IndigoiMac|IndigoiMac]] 12:33, 27 June 2008 (EDT)

: First of all, it is necessary to establish a difference between "believing in God" and "believing in what is the true God according to the Bible as it is interpreted by Christians". You can believe in God while denying the literal account of the Bible is true. Many people, including some scientists, do this. That being said, anyone who DID believe the literal account of the Bible was 100% true would almost certainly not be a scientist since doing so would force them to contradict their own beliefs. So it doesn't surprise me that leading scientists don't believe in the literal Bible any more than it should surprise me that Hindu priests don't. Science is these scientists' "religion" (which I use in a looser sense of the word than usual, to simply refer to any belief system whether there is a higher power involved or not). That is what they believe in. So this should really not be a surprise. [[User:Gregkochuconn|Gregkochuconn]] 13:52, 23 June 2011 (EDT)
