      I personally don’t believe in God, although I did used to go to church and I really wanted to and tried to believe for a long time but just couldn’t. Most people think that if you are a scientist you can’t possibly believe in God, but I have two friends who are scientists who are both Christians 🙂

      I’m not sure – I like the idea, and I, like Jaclyn, I don’t think that science disproves God (although it may narrow down the options of what you believe God is). But I’m not sure that I really believe.

      I’m an atheist and always have been. That said, like everyone else I have many colleagues who are religious, and as far as I know they see no conflict between their work and their beliefs.

      Actually I believe in God and it has never been a problem to reconcile faith and science. Their are two different things, quite orthogonal in my opinion. As a man of science I will always give the precedence to its evidences, so no Adam and Eve, no Noa’s Ark, yes to evolution, Earth is 5 billion year old and so on, but who knows what was before the Big Bang?
