Only 10% of the Nobel prize winners are atheist ?

[Mister Agenda]

Hi all,

I was very surprised to discover that only 10% of the Nobel prize winners are atheist:

Hmm. According to the CIA, atheists are only 2.4% of the world's population, yet they have four times that much representation when it comes to Nobel prizes. Given that the average difference between the IQs (read as academic aptitude) of believers and nonbelievers is much less than a standard deviation, it should have very little impact on obtaining Nobel prizes. Atheists don't seem to be being short-changed when it comes to Nobel prizes.
