I do not judge people by a "measure" YOU have dishonestly invented. Anyone can sincerely believe in the Bible and also be sincerely mistaken about what they believe. Since you obviously refuse to engage in intellectually honest discourse, you are permanently relegated to The Penalty Box.

I would say they were ignorant of many things that have bearing on the question of the existence of a deity. Aristotle was brilliant, but usually wrong. newton was a genius, but also wrong in detail. Lemaitre was hugely important for the rise of chemistry, but certainly did not know even about atoms. It is quite possible for an incredibly intelligent person to also be ignorant. As such, the conclusions made when the state of knowledge was lower cannot limit us now.  ![[Image: kvPtvFbY_o.jpeg]](https://images2.imgbox.com/61/4c/kvPtvFbY_o.jpeg)
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Their dissertation was titled "Critical Thinking in the Bible". And they truly believes the bullshit in it. When you talk to them, it becomes pretty apparent (quickly) that they've got some serious psychological issues, and are clearly on some kind of heavy psychotropic drugs. They, and their spouse (together) are "Christian Relationship Counselors". Yikes! I feel sorry for them, and their delusions.
Disappointing theists since 1968!
I'm sure it keeps them happy!
The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.
Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it! 
If there was any critical thinking involved, the babble wouldn't be a thing.
