Fat, what you described sounds like a combination of lazy, comfortable, and brainwashed. In no way do those imply a person is an unintelligent. For an example of a stupid theist, I'd look at their apologists, the ones trying to justify God through science or philosophy. Also, I should add dishonest to the list because sometimes it's hard for me to believe that apologists really find their arguments persuasive.
