Why are there so few Christians in Science?

RE: Why are there so few Christians in Science?
People who beleive in nonsense are more likely to reject empirical evidence in favor of their cherry-picked holy books. Scientists are more likely to reject the unevidenced in favor of their search for truth in various fields.
Finding someone religious who can reconcile the truth with their fiction are rare, due to the necessary mental contortions.
My conclusion is that there is no reason to believe any of the dogmas of traditional theology and, further, that there is no reason to wish that they were true.
Man, in so far as he is not subject to natural forces, is free to work out his own destiny. The responsibility is his, and so is the opportunity.
-Bertrand Russell
