Well I got nthat impression from the fact that most scientists are athiests, although it should be noted that Isaac Newton was a devout Christian, so it seems that being a serious scientist and being a Christian, or believing in a supreme being, is not mutually exclusive.

What does it matter if scientists are athiests or believe in God?
Most science people are conservative by nature anyway.

That's not a fair judgment. Have you even looked at the religion? Yes...and it makes a very poor Sci-Fi story and considering its creator was a Sci-Fi writer there you go. Trust me I've looked at the religion (I was curious) and they are insane. There a reason why they wouldn't let anyone read their holy book till they were in the group for at least a few years and that's because by then you don't want to admit how stupid you are. Let's see alien souls, evil overlords, and Tom Cruise what does that equal? Its not a legit religion and I won't accept it as.

You don't have a "Catholic but don't give a crap about it" choice ;D So I guess that would make me a Catholic Lite

Don't forget to pray.

I'm not a big prayer cuz it's not my thing, but I'm praying alot currently.

I don't pray (That's probably the 95th strike against me getting into heaven) It's RARE that I even pray. But I have a family crisis goin' on currently so I'm praying for that. Normally, I go to bed, no prayers.

Prayed when I was litte (Nazi-like nuns would do that to you) now, nothing.
Seemed like not only a waste of time (96th strike) But completely useless, especially when you don't have faith for the religion you're supposed to be (97th strike)

Yeah, I have little faith in any beliefs.
My grandmum went to a church school as a child (the priest listened to the original Guiding Light radio broadcastings back in those days, as she could hear from wherever)... I think she was afraid of the Nuns.
Nuns scare me in general.

I'm actually Universal, meaning I believe in all religions, except Satanism, since I don't condome the idea of sacrificing innocent people or animals to please a God or Devil, but I still hold on to both my Christian and Wiccan Beliefs with the utmost intensity

I'm on at least 136! Good thing, too, the Devil owes me a golden football...

Whoever said science and religion are two different things!?
Science is the study of how God created things...
