Do you think Atheists are stupid?

[Angrboda]

Real question here, I mean most people become Atheists because either one they're vexed at God or two because they can't reconcile their Faith with Science. So I ask you, in the scenario that you can't reconcile your faith with science does that make you smart that you ditched your old beliefs or does that make you an idiot because you couldn't conceive of a way in which you would still believe in God even if the book were verifiably proven to be wrong. Which leads us to the first scenario, you'd have to be vexed at God in order for you to stop believing in this force that governs the universe. Which means that in order to be vexed at someone you'd have to let your emotions control you, so in this light Atheists are just idiots who couldn't reconcile their faith with science and let their emotions control their line of thinking.

It wouldn't seem to me that these people are critical thinkers at all but people who lack the capacity for true critical thought otherwise surely they would be able to reconcile some belief in a power that is higher than them in this universe. Rather I feel they like to just stroke their own egos boasting themselves as intellectuals while berating someone as 'stupid' for cherishing their faith. Envy no doubt.

It likely comes down to the difference between what is possible and what is probable. It's possible to reconcile faith and the things we know -- Duhem-Quine tells us that any theory can be reconciled -- but it is not also the case that any possible solution which reconciles the two is probable. As Hume said, a prudent man apportions his belief to the evidence, or what, in other words, is probable.
