> An atheist is simply one who does not believe in the existence of a physical deity. All scientists are atheists, whether they admit it or not.

I don't know that such absolute statements are a good idea. I think I saw a poll of Ph.D. scientists in the U.S., and a substantial number (30 or 40%, I don't clearly recall) were committed to their Christian faith, notwithstanding the discrepancies with their science work.

Einstein was a pantheist. I would have to say I am, too.

I'm not sure I'm comfortable with your definition for atheism.
