Religious Scientists: An Oxymoron?

Yes, yes, and yes: many scientists have God-beliefs. If you argue that this is evidence for a God, you are committing the logical fallacy of Argumentum ad populum (Argument from numbers), which is based on claiming a truth or affirming something is good because the majority thinks so (Wikipedia).

An Oxymoron is a figure of speech that juxtaposes concepts with opposing meanings within a word or phrase that creates an ostensible self-contradiction (Wikipedia). I hold that a religious scientist is inconsistent with his/her/they thinking, as is reflected in my image below. Thus, I hold that the two words together are an oxymoron. If you disagree, as most religious scientists would, let's just agree to disagree. 

I have posted on this subject a few times before and this will be my last post on the unfortunate situation.
