I don't understand this.

Don Knuth is a Christian, as he sometimes mentions in talks or things he's written. He also wrote this book which discusses each 3:16 verse in the bible http://www.amazon.com/3-16-Bible-Texts-Illuminated/dp/089579...

Thank you for answering my question.

A white American being Christian is so common that I wonder why the original poster felt that this was worth emphasizing.

As Knuth himself acknowledged in "Things a Computer Scientist Rarely Talks About", it's rare among CS researchers.
