I'd be interested to know that, I would guess mainly not.
I agree, it makes no difference to me what the great minds of the past and present happen to have as their theistic beliefs. It has no bearing on any demonstrated progress that they make in reality. It doesn't make their other beliefs right or wrong. It really annoys me when people try and credit religion for a scientific discovery because the guy who found it out just happened to be Christian or whatever. That's just stupid. They wouldn't credit atheism in the same way if an atheist makes a discovery.
