I am undertaking research to determine if preference for
A) science subjects
B) arts and humanities
C) no preference
has any relationship to belief in God:
1 - Strong belief in God
2 - Weak belief in God
3 - Undecided/agnostic
4 - Doubt the existence of God
5 - Disbelieve in the existence of God.
Please can you let me know of your preference by posting a response like A1 (science + strong belief), B3 (arts and humanities + undecided), C2 (no preference + weak belief) etc.
Comments welcome.

A) science subjects 1 - Strong belief in God
The more I study science the more I beleive God must exist. Everything proves there must be some sort of creator. And many things contadict theories of evolution and other things.

Sounds like a really interesting project.
For me C 1 - Now I am a Christian (male, 34 yrs - with a post grad education - if that helps)
I love Science & Art / Humanities and have a strong beleif in god. I'm guessing one of the the configurations you are looking for is A to 3,4,5. - Well a lot of the most important scientists EG Newton, were devout Christians and in fact Science has actually been used to prove religious argument.
Feel free to contact me direct if you want further personal input.

To directly answer your question: C1. I don't really think you can categorically classify science students as having weaker faith, just because they study a subject that has tried to disprove the existence of a higher power. I almost was a science student, but ended up in communications. My choice of subject had nothing to do with the extent of my faith in God.
I don't know if this helps, but there's a beautiful line in Dan Brown's "Angels & Demons". One of the characters is a Catholic priest and also a scientist. He sees no contradiction between science & faith. He describes science as God's way of guiding us to him....science helps us understand nature and space and therefore helps us understand Him.
Good luck.

I neither believe nor disbelieve in "God". I am employed in a science-based industry but am an active participant in arts and humanities.
