Have you tried the National Center for Science Education (http:// www.natcenscied.org/)? I don't remember off the top of my head if they've done such a study or published in their Reports, but I'd suggest asking someone there about this.

That is my philosophy. I have the tranquility of ignorance and faith in science. Other persons cannot live without faith, without belief, without theology. Me, I pass these by. I sleep on the pillow of ignorance. I don't know. I will never know. I accept it without tormenting myself. I wait. I do not fall because of this into nihilism, I try to recognise the connections" --Claude Bernard On Aug 21, 2007, at 9:03 AM, O'Mara, Maureen wrote: > Greetings list, > > I am wondering if any of you can direct me to research or a survey > that > has been done that would tell me the percentage of university > professors > that have Christian beliefs.
