In all my life, I've never heard my fiancé (a microbiologist) mention any god in her research, and neither have her colleagues.
I see no issue here as I posted previously let science deal with science let philosophy/religion deal with God/no God. Science and religion is like oil and water. They both work best when kept seperate.
Agreed, except the problem starts when the religious assert that their holy book describes the physical world e.g. Genesis.
Let's skip ahead and agree that it's nothing more than poetry (from your posts so far, I get the feeling this might be the case). Then what is the point of it all? Doesn't it seem like you're moving away from a characteristic personal god to what seems to be a deistic god whose involvement was nothing short of... well, what science describes i.e. a natural universe which is 13.7 billion years old? Why hold onto the words of men living 2000+ years ago?
