Atheists and suicide

[StatCrux]

William Lane Craig is as full of shit as ever. One day I hope the xtians stop believing things they want to hear by people who are well-paid to say them.

Being a religious person doesn't always make you stupid, but religion is stupid.

I think a professor of philosophy in a major university would qualify as an intellectual...

That's what you get for thinking. I'm not saying that he's not smart, educated, articulate, creative, etc. He just uses all that to spread lies and convince people to buy his bullshit, literally. He's smart enough to fool you into thinking he's an intellectual, which isn't saying much.

If you were capable of following an argument you would know that I wasn't talking about William Craig. I was pointing out that professors of philosophy in major universities could be considered as intellectuals, so using them as an example of intellectuals is valid. It was in response to a statement by Tempus that atheism correlates to high intelligence.

But it still wouldn't make philosophy equal to intellectualism.

William Craig isn't saying philosophy is equal to intellectualism, he's showing that a large number of philosophy professors (who could be considered as intellectual) are also Christian, to counter the assertion that modern universities and the intellectuals are mainly atheist. You can get very clever and very dumb atheists and Christians.
