Theists are individuals who believe in the existence of a deity or deities. They hold the view that there is a higher power or divine being that is responsible for the creation and order of the universe. This belief is a central tenet of many religions.

Why don't theists accept science?

Theists in general have not established a common and consistent view on the acceptability of science. In that much science has been done by theists (e.g Gregor Johann Mendel (July 20, 1822 - January 6, 1884) was an Austrian Augustinian monk and a scientist who did his work on genetics) and much mathematical and astronomical work (both these are areas of science) was done by moslems (strong theists) in the middle ages, it is safe to assume that at least some theists are firm believers in science.

Is zen buddist atheist?

As Buddhists neither worship or acknowledge a deity they would meet the definition of "atheist" (no god) for many theists. The Buddhist belief in an immortal part (similar to the Christian concept of soul) would make many atheists wonder if they weren't more like theists. The Buddhists may fall into a different category than the simplistic theist/atheist dichotomy. They may be non-theists.
