Many theists, college graduates or not, do have good critical thinking skills, except for the one blind spot where their religious convictions lie.
College helps to hone one's critical thinking, no doubt, but it alone is not going to sway a theist from his/her religious delusion.
I’ve found many college graduates, who lack good critical thinking skills. And I know many who didn’t go to college, who do think critically. Those who don’t have any formal education, but have learned pieces of things through the years and can logically and systematically work through a problem.
However, I am curious. What is the critical thinking, that you think is a blind spot for theists? Why do you think that my religious convictions is s blind spot or lack of critical thinking.
