Benjamin, you dismiss the fact that a great many practicing scientists are believers is some form of deity, and younger ones more than older. What do you make of the fact that only 10% of Nobel laureattes were atheists? But truth is not established by voting. You are a philosopher. Perhaps you have heard of Alvin Plantinga, once of the most respected philosophers in recent memory. I suggest you might read his book Where the Conflict Really Lies. As a top tier analytical philosopher, he argues that theism is consistent with science but naturalism isn't. Even Thomas Nagel found it impossible to argue with his position.
