Quote:I would really like to see how you are more rational and intelligent than religious people?
We're not.
There is no evidence to show a causal relationship between intellect religious beliefs. Although stupid people tend to be religious,not all religious people are stupid.
Although the very brightest people are often atheists, not all atheists are amongst the very brightest.
I have never seen any evidence that human beings a a species are capable of consistent rational thought or behaviour.Nor have I seen any evidence that proves our that reason and intellect are involved in the formation of our most powerful beliefs and attitudes. That may in part be why relatively few people allow anything as prosaic as evidence to change their beliefs or world view.
I must admit, adult converts to any religion bemuse me. I can only conclude they are damaged and emotionally needy human beings with a very modest IQ, such as say little Tommy Cruise and various other celebrity Scientologists.
