Scientists' Belief in God Varies Starkly by Discipline

I find it amusing that the study inquiring whether scientists believe in God includes political scientists.

Rice University sociologist Elaine Howard Ecklund initially thought that social scientists would be less likely to practice religion than natural scientists, though the numbers were exactly the reverse. Hmmm, let's see. Why in the world would non-scientists be less likely to practice than real scientists?

On another related note, I wonder if the study also included Christian Scientists?
