Evidence God Exists

[Paul the Human]

I'm not sure what your point is. No one ever said that being smart automatically makes one an atheist. Besides, a poll of that sort cannot be considered accurate, due to the fact that most atheists are 'in the closet', so to speak. In fact, for many years, when asked what my religion was, I answered 'Catholic', even though I did not actually believe in god. Furthermore, having a high IQ does not mean that someone has actively questioned the claims that there is a god, which is normally how one becomes an atheist in the first place.

I contend that a large percentage of people that would claim the label 'Christian' never really gave the concept of god any thought at all and really don't know if they believe or not when it comes right down to it. My wife is a good example. When she and I first met, I asked her if she believed and she said, "I guess so. I don't go to church, but... I never really thought about it." Now that she has had the time and inclination to give it some serious thought... she is an atheist. More militant about it than me, to be honest.

So, what I'm saying is... asking most people if they believe or not does not necessarily provide you with a good gauge as to whether or not they really do. And, to reiterate, being intelligent does not make one an atheist. We all know that. So... you have no point.
