When I was in academia there was no shortage of my peers with PhDs in physics who were very religious. Having a PhD in a science is not proof against having misinformed or unscientific views.

- sidlls 9y agoYes, it is very much at least the latter. There is absolutely no scientific support for relgious beliefs.
