What percent of intelligent people are bent out of shape regarding the religion of Nobel prize winners?



There must be a muslim, hindu and buddhist conspiracy!

Christians: About 30% of the population, about 65% of the Nobel Prizes.

Jews: About 0.2% of the population, about 21% of the Nobel Prizes.

A Jew is almost 50 times more likely to win a Nobel Prize than a Christian. Checkmate Christians!

At least part of the problem here comes from a perceived need for something quantifiable. Number of Noble Prizes, or IQ.

Phronesis is not quantifiable, but is probably way more important in life than IQ.

I had the notion/idea that people usually win a Nobel prize for scientific discoveries.

Like Albert Einstein for example, or Ada Yonath that discovered the structure of the Ribosome, or Dan Shechtman that discovered a new crystal structure.

Maybe I was wrong.

No, that's not nonsense, smart people usually don't believe in God.

Of the five Nobeks and the fake Nobel (the one created in economics by the Swedish central bank to promote small state economic "theories" because the Swedish government were creating an all too sucessful and popular welfare state), fully half are in areas which have nos scientific connection. And even in tge sciences up until after WW2 winners came from cultures and systems where it was a very bad idea to admit to irreligion.

Remember even in the west acceptance of irreligion is a very recent phenomenon.

How do you explain this?

Even if true it is logical fallacy known as Argument from authority. People can draw from that kind of data to believe what they want. For instance I met recently group of alchemists who believe in alchemy because Marie Curie and her husband went to see psychics, so not because of the evidence for alchemy but because Marie Curie saw psychics.

So again, if religious people want to prove God they should stop constantly using logical fallacies, but bring evidence for god.

How on earth asking this question in another forum making me a spammer?

Is there a limit to ask a question in one forum only?

First of all, relax, okay? The rules that you cited talks about sending the same post to multiple forums in this site, it's says nothing about sending the question to another site's forum. So I sent the question in another site as well, how exactly does it bothering you? you are bored or something?

No, it doesn't.  Read the bolded portion.  Try to understand the bolded portion. Make the bolded portion part of your inner Being.

I don't think your interpretation for this section is correct, as I understand it, it doesn't talks about asking the same question in another site.

And I still don't understand why does it so bothering you.
