Atheists, agnostics most knowledgeable about religion, survey says

yeah seriously, thta is like some sort of special inscrutable convoluted version of english:

" knowledge and experience about certain things or many things can have the same sense of frustration and irritation that can sadden and discourage"

dude, slow it down, less words, more meaning.

 

This because religion has never been a Godly creation. The Law was NEVER about the LAW!!
"Who requires you of this trampling of My courts?"

 

Worshipers of the one who created religion, are the ones knowing more about it than believers? Imagine that!

 

I’ve known a lot of atheist that where dumb as dirt with very little education too Martin.


There is absolutely no correlation between person’s intelligence and their religious beliefs. Though I will say most atheist are, shall we say argumentative, and most argumentative people will seek out facts and information to aid them in an argument. Thus, them being well informed on the topic of religion. Most of the ones I’ve talked to are also conspiracy theorist. That is probably neither here or there though.


On a side note, there is also little correlation between a person’s intelligence and there educational background in my opinion. I’ve meet people with masters who can’t think for themselves if their life depended on it. I have also meet people that have little to no college education that can figure out some of the toughest logic problems out there. Just because you can memorize text and spurt it out, does not make one intelligent.

 

yes, like infants. they are born atheists. some of them are taught to be superstitious, but not all.

incorrect. smarter people are better critical thinkers, and therefore more likely to be atheist.

thats weird. i dont hate anyone like i hate conspiracy theorists.

most smarter people come from smarter families that have been smart for generations and have had time to become educated folks that educate their kids. i would argue that a random college-educated person is smarter than a random non-college educated person, though not by an enormous amount.

i have met women that are stronger than most men. i have met white folks that can jump. i have met black folks that are not criminals. it doesnt mean much relative to the big picture. educated and intelligent folks are less likely to be religious, because being religious is stupid. that doesnt mean that all religious people are stupid, or all atheists are smart. lots of smart people have lots of other failings that keep them from being atheist.

 

You mean lately, don't you. History supports the opposite. The wise sage politician of history knew the value of claiming religion and embracing the people. Even today, many politicians understand the value in any skirmish, to draft God first and then get down to building that army and take on the bad guys. God and country, right? That translates in any language.

 

not sure what you are talking about. claiming to be religious is not the same as being religious.

obama is an atheist claiming to be christian, thats the way demagogues roll, everyone knows that. power is more important to them than honesty.

i feel like you wanted to make a point that you thought was smart, so you shoehorned it in even though it isnt relevant at all.
