Pew Research Center -- Scientists and Belief

In particular, I was pleased to see the percentage of physicists and astronomers who were wholly atheistic:

Kind of surprised by the "Biological and Medical" atheists being proportionately smaller than the "Physics and Astronomy" crowd, of which I am one. I knew few people with biology degrees who were not atheists. Maybe the medical people made a difference?
