A poll recently came out that said
that most scientists are atheists. Which only proves my point.

A poll doesn't prove anything beyond how opinion is distributed among
the sampled populace.

I know some world-class scientists who are devoutly faithful in their
various faiths.

I don't think any of them would assert that their beliefs are the only
true beliefs. If pressed, they would probably assert that their faith
seems right to them and note that other faiths can be right for those
that hold them. I'm quite sure that none of them would try to
evangelize others. Scientists would much rather debate and discuss
science with their peers.

Believe what you will (or not), respect others who believe differently
than you do. How hard is that to do, right?
