The standard critique is that it uses an "overly narrow" definition of God - a personal, omnipotent God.
But it doesn't matter as the results of that study are bogus. Everyone knows the truth -
all scientists believe in God.

Wow, that article brings back memories: a whole goddamn lifetime of staring at syllogisms like this...

Scientists in practice believe passionately in the rationality of scientific law. We are not dealing with an irrational, totally unaccountable and unanalyzable surd, but with lawfulness that in some sense is accessible to human understanding. Rationality is a sine qua non for scientific law. But, as we know, rationality belongs to persons, not to rocks, trees, and subpersonal creatures. If the law is rational, which scientists assume it is, then it is also personal.

...and being silently horrified that the world was such an ugly, small place, a place that fit snugly inside the heads of these dull men with their clammy hands and claptrap thoughts.
THANKS A LOT. MAYBE A "NSFRC (Not Safe For Recovering Christians)" NEXT TIME?
