18-34 42% 35-49 37% 50-64 23% 65+ 28%
It should also be noted, that a Super majority (66%) of 18-34 Scientists believe in either a god or a higher power. This is not happen for any other age group.

| This is so much of what I didn't expect that I strongly doubt the validity of the poll. Has anyone else done a comparable study? |

^National Academy of Scientists, USA... leading American scientists are 72% atheistic, 21% agnostic, 7% theistic. And it's funny because it comes from a religious site.

>1998
That was 14 years ago good sir.
Nore does it account for age groups, still 66% of Scientists do not believe in a god or a higher power in the current poll, so there is little difference. Therefore it would be ridiculous to dismiss the poll as an anomaly. |

| Can you get a poll on the religion of LEADING scientists? Can you get a poll that asks more than 20 or whatever? Can you get one that isn't so obviously fake and biased? I looked everywhere on the internet and all the sources contradict your poll. |

I know your steaming with rage but this is PEW poll, it;s not going to be faked and biased
Also if it makes you feel better 66% of Scientists remain atheists or agnostics, the difference is at the age group level and that is the question I an answering.
Look, getting agree at the facts makes you no better then the religious zealots you hate, in fact you would be one of them, an ignorant militant fool. |
