There's a world of difference between 'biblical claims' and just plain 'anyhing', fr00ds. Shame on you.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Biblical understanding and understanding everything. Sure. By the same token why should the label smart person have anything to do with the lack of knowledge of Christianity?

The more one knows about Christianity, the more ridiculous it appears.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
