Religious people in the medical field

The number of nurses, especially.  (I work with them)  

And doctors are not exempt either.  I accompanied one patient to a veteran's appointment.  The Asian doctor had biblical scripture on her wall.

SMDH.

Doctors exist in every religion worldwide so like our general population it would still remain, doctor or not, most humans hold some sort of religious position.

There are Muslim doctors, Hindu doctors, Jewish doctors, and Buddhist doctors. That says to me, our species ability to be compassionate isn't coming from the writings of antiquity, but our evolutionary empathy.

Both Ben Carson and Sam Harris are neurologists. That also says to me the science is independent of any religion. If only one religion owned a patent on science and scientific method proved one religion over another, there would be no dispute.

But the higher up you go in scientific field, say to the Hawking's level, the less religious there are on average.
