Perhaps you should read up on compartmentalization as a cognitive phenomenon.
I know plenty of intelligent Christians, indeed have some in my family.
Compartmentalization in this case is but a euphemism for cognitive dissonance.
There is no doubt some of the insane, the cognitively dissonant, and the uneducated are brilliant. That doesn't mean they are therefore either right where their afflictions have effected them, or their defects less of a defect or less problematic as a defect.
