She finds that most of what we believe about the faith lives of elite scientists is wrong. Nearly 50 percent of them are religious. Many others are what she calls “spiritual entrepreneurs,” seeking creative ways to work with the tensions between science and faith outside the constraints of traditional religion…..only a small minority are actively hostile to religion. +++ And heres A professional scientific study proving that prayer works: 1stholistic/Prayer/hol_prayer_proof.htm There is ample proof that prayer works. Many scientific studies have been conducted that validate this observation. A 1993 Israeli survey following 10,000 civil servants for 26 years found that Orthodox Jews were less likely to die of cardiovascular problems than nonbelievers. And a 1995 study from Dartmouth College in Hanover, N.H., monitoring 250 people after open-heart surgery concluded that those who had religious connections and social support were 12 times less likely to die than those who had none. +++ the Pontifical Academy of Sciences has a long list of Noble Prize winning scientists who believe in God... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontifical_Academy_of_Sciences
