Sorry, if you're referring to me. I wouldn't bet on me being smarter.
Here, I tend to use 'moron' or 'idiot' as pejorative terms actually meaning something like; ignoramus, fool, drongo or plain old dickhead. If I were ever seriously questioning another's intellect, I assure you I would be far gentler., and would not intentionally set out to wound another.
Referring to some of our Christian apologists in the same way is not meant literally, at least not by me. That a person has managed to find this forum, and can write simple English suggests at least an average IQ. These people tend to be wilfully ignorant, which is worse than stupidity in my opinion, as it's fixable.
Lack of intellect isn't a crime. Neither is wilful ignorance, although it can be most annoying.
Perhaps more accurate to refer to the guy in the video as a dickhead.

For future reference; Your claim that so many believers shows the the Q'uran to be largely error free, is incorrect. The statement is a common logical fallacy, called "argument by consensus" IE that a thing must be true if a lot of people believe to be true. In reality, the opposite is more likely to be true. EG I believe there are approx. 1 billion Muslims. There are also approx. 2 billion Christians.
I think Muslims generally consider Christians to be in error, and that they should embrace Islam
