      Personally I’m not religious, no. I know lots of scientists who are though — I don’t think that being religious means you can’t be a scientist, or that being a scientist means you can’t be religious.

      I really enjoy learning about other religions but personally I am not. But that doesn’t mean you cant be a religious scientist!

      I’m not religious personally but I don’t think being religious stops you from perusing science at all! I know many religious scientists. It all depends on your outlook I think. I know some religious people who love science because they believe God made the universe and they’re studying it which brings them closer to God!
