I can give you one point of data on that without any need for an interview. Not in my case, no. I was an atheist looooong before I knew what a RAS system was. Before I could do basic math. Before I knew that there was a word to describe it.
You'd have to tailor the question more narrowly, as it seems that there's a silent premise that your target demo would all have began as theists, so that going into stem could conceivably make them atheists - whatever that means. It also appears to make the silent assumption that atheists aren't religious. There's probably a more interesting bit of research to do on whomever gave you these questions.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
