Skeptic Magazine: 40% of scientists are religious

A survey by Skeptic Magazine found that 40% of working scientists in the
United States believe in God. I had the link but can't find it.

The most astute comment by one of the scientists who took the survey is that
science and faith are separate realms of human activity. You don't need to
believe in order to know, and you don't need to know in order to believe.
The alleged conflict between Creationism and Evolutionism was called "a
superficial sound byte in a sound byte oriented popular culture."

Working just from memory, I thought the number was 15%. I might have seen
it on their website.

It is hard to gather such statistics, as many agnostics and atheists do not
want to be labeled as such.
