Science, Medicine and Religion: A Theory as To Why So Many Scientists Are Atheists

Let’s get one things straight, this is not at all to say that scientists are dumb.  In fact, in academia I believe that despite the high amount of atheists that these scientists and other folk with Ph. D’s.  Science is probably the discipline where among its practitioners one will find the greatest percentage of atheists.  However, stop right there because I don’t believe being a parrot of those cloaked in lab coats will result in gaining intelligence.

So, where is it that science has gone wrong if there is in fact a Gd that cares about us, and a Gd that wants to see us repent?  The first error I believe folks make in disregarding the Bible is that they automatically assume that it doesn’t describe the way creation actually is.  Not until a scientist is willing to take the Torah seriously as a document that describes both the honky dory aspects of life as well as the extremely negative aspects of life, such as parents eating babies will a scientist or a doctor have their heart prepared to receive the Torah as a primary source for knowledge about creation.  By the way I don’t believe that Gd created creation in six 24 hour days, in fact that much seems impossible because the sun wasn’t created until the 4^th day, such that previous to that it would appear that dates and times become uncertain.

The crux of science and medicine including religion is that it is done without the doctor knowing about it.  The Talmud, which is Torah, tells us that if we are a healer, we should act as if Gd does not exist when healing!!!  Thus, in a way atheists are kind of doing it right when practicing their jobs.  They do not sit on their hands and wait for Gd to heal the person, and they are foolish for not having explored religion further by assuming this is what religionists would think is reasonable behavior for a doctor.

IMHO that right there is the most unknown aspect about religion that has led to academia being virtually furious toward religionists.  When it comes to religionists, it can often be said, “Don’t ask a fool his or her opinion for he or she will almost certainly disappoint you,” and I do understand that there are far more fools that are religionists, than there is that are doctors, but for scientists in academia, the one’s with 150 IQs etc, there is really no excuse for lack of knowledge.  It is crucial that this information be spread about how that when one is to operate, whether it is surgery or a science experiment, he or she is to act as if Gd does not exist, but also to be prepared for Gd to act upon the doctor such that the healing may be done.
