Religion : A statistical property
Creationists have surely given a very hard time to evolutionary biologists. This is not because the arguments of creationists are rational, but simply because of the opposite reason. And given the important positions that many creationists occupy in the social ladder, it is not even possible to just ignore them and move on. Creationists are, basically, religious people who like to adhere to their beliefs in all circumstances irrespective of the fact that exists evidence that falsifies their beliefs. However, all religions of the world are not opposed to the idea of evolution. This fact tempts one to conclude that religions belonging to one set are more scientific than the religions belonging to another. But, as of now, there is no data available to verify this statement. Also, in the history of mankind, many great scientists, specially mathematicians, were actually very religious.
