No, you listed 17 scientific minds that also happened to be religious. That's not the same thing; what you're doing here is the post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy. After this, therefore because of this: "They were religious before they were scientists, therefore the fact that they were scientists is because they were religious." Well, they were also longtime poopers, probably before they were even religious; does that mean that poop produced seventeen branches of science?

Just replace "science" with "business acumen" in the above argument.
