Y'all still arguing over this you do realize that neither side is going to convince the other, right? If so, carry on.

That's not true at all. If it were then churches are wasting a bunch of money on mission trips.

You do realize they send missionaries to places where people have more open minds than you do ie: the middle east

Still waiting on you to explain how a talking snake isn't a scientific absurdity.

This is a question a 1st grader might struggle with so I understand your confusion.

A talking "snake" is not what tempted Adam and Eve.

A new review of 63 scientific studies stretching back over decades has concluded that religious people are less intelligentthan non-believers.

A piece of University of Rochester analysis, led by Professor Miron Zuckerman, found “a reliable negative relation between intelligence and religiosity” in 53 out of 63 studies.

According to the study entitled, 'The Relation Between Intelligence and Religiosity: A Meta-Analysis and Some Proposed Explanations', published in the 'Personality and Social Psychology Review', even during early years the more intelligent a child is the more likely it would be to turn away from religion.

In old age above average intelligence people are less likely to believe, the researchers also found.

One of the studies used in Zuckerman's paper was a life-long analysis of the beliefs of 1,500 gifted children with with IQs over 135.

Quoting that study isn't demonstrative of much other than we shouldn't take your opinion on studies all that seriously.

I applaud the socially maladjusted Ivy League geniuses that have a 3-4 point higher average IQ than the average Christian in the US. That data makes perfect sense. But it confuses me that the average Jewish believer in the US had a 12-13 point higher IQ vs the same group of Ivy League atheists. I guess all 63 of the studies couldn't conform to the narrative.
