Diverse Faculty United in Dislike for Evangelicals.

This (pdf) study on the religious views of academic faculty members is interesting. It appears that faculty members are not totally united in their disdain for religion no matter what your actual college experience may have been, but the one group that a majority of faculty members dislike are evangelicals.

On the other hand, faculty religious commitment is far less than that of the general public, faculty members are more likely to be registered Democrats than the general public, and twice as many faculty members identify as "liberal" than the general public.

So, it is really a dog bites man survey.
