Any other Atheist here?

[Ram]

Atheism and Science are not mutually exclusive; one can believe equally in both, but they are not dependent on, nor derivative of, each other. Of course, if you poll actual scientists, you will find that approximately 95% of them have faith in a higher power. Which is just about the same percentage of non-scientists.

True, people are people scientist, mechanic, or artist.

Well you hust have to consider what we all tie the spirit too. You can not claim a spirit that you do have but in the same say you don't believe in whatever simple because the spirit tie to the invisible world of thing you can't see but Know are their.

Spirit can simply refer to the ingegration of instinct and the thought process. Mind on its own can conceived of a lot of means to deliver a punch etc, you can work a strong body, but without the will to put it together, you have less than the sum of the whole.

There's nothing supernatural about that.

Actually, that doesn't seem to be quite true. From Wikipedia's Religiosity and intelligence entry:

Religiosity and education in the United States
Research in the United States has suggested a negative correlation between religiosity and educational level, a variable usually related with higher IQ. In 2000, noted skeptic Michael Shermer found a negative correlation between education and religiosity in the United States, though Rice University indicates this may not apply to the social sciences.[4] Lastly a June 2006 Gallup survey further supported that a definite belief in God declines with educational level.[5]

Belief in a personal God among scientists
In one study, 90% of the general population surveyed professed a distinct belief in a personal god and afterlife, while only 40% of the scientists with a BS surveyed did so, and only 10% of those considered "eminent."[1]. Another study found that mathematicians were just over 40%, biologists just under 30%, and physicists were barely over 20% likely to believe in God.[2]
A 1998 survey[3] by Larson and Witham of the 517 members of the United States National Academy of Sciences showed that 72.2% of the members expressed "personal disbelief" in a personal God while 20.8% expressed "doubt or agnosticism" and only 7.0% expressed "personal belief". This was a follow-up to their own earlier 1996 study[4] which itself was a follow-up to a 1916 study by James Leuba[5].​

Just something to think about....
