Nope, you simply didn't offer what you believe so far. There's also a distinction between lack of intelligence and ignorance. An intelligent person can still be ignorant.
So far I reserved judgment on both counts, since you simply didn't state what you believe and what you hold to be true in lights of science, and why.
Again, sola scriptura doesn't cut it. Not by a long chalk. That can mean anything and nothing.
