@GC
In case you don't see where I'm going here...
Im inviting you to personally appraise your own intelligence and, rank yourself on a 1-10 level. If you think you are among the top ten percent, give yourself a 1, if you are confident that compared to the other members you are average, take a 5, etc.
Of course, you don't have to tell me what your number is, but the implications are there whether you tell me or not...
I'm trying to get you to see that once you admit that there's a good chance that, when it comes to critically evaluating the intricacies of a complex idea, there are at least a few Atheists on this site who, at any moment in a disagreement, are right while you are wrong. And, you're not wrong because you're stupid. You're wrong because you incorrectly interpreted the information. Once you start recognizing that as a possibility, you can take the opportunity to learn from that experience. There are sometimes GC, where you are just blatantly wrong and seem content on being obtuse. If you can realize that you're not the smartest person on here, you can realize your next opportunity to learn something when that person, whoever they may be, starts trying to explain something to you. Just an idea. Take it or leave it...
