Fixed that for you.
Chad, what you (and most of the other faithers who come here) just don't get is that we don't give a shit about your religious arguments. If we're arguing them at all, for the most part it's out of boredom, wanting to play whack-a-mole, whatever... Most of of come from religious households, grew up in religious communities and quite likely still live in religious communities. The arguments and evidence were unconvincing then and remain unconvincing now, especially considering they haven't changed.
Then don't blame us if boredom, apathy, or whatever you want to call that makes many use bad and lazy arguements, lead to a poor conclusions about your intelligence.
Constantly declaring how smart one is, while avoiding discussion or using ad arguments doesn't help much either. I go by what I see.
