Binary religious thinking
#31
RE: Binary religious thinking
It's interesting that the two groups of highly STEM educated people most likely to be theists are engineers and doctors. Both are very practical professions. And very necessary ones. But the practitioners are usually not involved in research (I'd be interested to know how many of the research professionals in these professions are theist) but rather in the application of scientific discoveries. The use of of discoveries does not necessarily require the mindset necessary to discovery.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
