Scientists are trained to deal with only that which can be proven, so naturally they deal exclusively with the physical world. Therefore, it is widely assumed that most scientists are atheists. A 20-year examination of scientists attitudes toward religion shows that assumption is largely accurate, one study showing that about 30 percent of responding scientists declared a religious affiliation. However, atheist scientists are much less negative about religion than one might expect. One survey discovered that two-thirds of scientists do not view the science–religion relationship as one of conflict.
