I was thinking more in terms of people performing basic scientific research. I find it harder to believe that someone investigating the initial conditions of the universe or the human genome could also hold fundamentalist beliefs.

I guess I agree to a point but I would have a hard time buying a airplane from an aerospace engineer who did not believe flight was possible. I mining engineer who does not understand the fundamentals of how the earth was created is a bit to 'weird' for me.
