Copenhagen School  Religious Views: Its all bullshit to keep you handing money to the usher.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.

It's not necessarily a question of being stupid. Probably the majority of religious people are above average intelligence, at the very least. It's more to do with gullibility, a short-circuit in critical thinking that makes a person accept without hesitation anything that some figure of authority tells them if it reinforces jealously-guarded beliefs, especially if it's reinforced in turn by other authority sources ("a lie told often enough becomes the truth", but more effectively to a mindset that desperately wants that lie to be truth in the first place).
Remember, 'stupid' isn't not knowing something; it's not even wanting to learn.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
