Answer: Statistically the less religious a person is the more intelligent that person tends to be. Does that mean that all religious people are stupid? Of course not. Does it even mean that religious people are stupid in general? That would depend on your perspective.

Answer:I respect those who are religious but where's the proof of God existing? Where's the proof of heaven or hell? And yes there was a man called Jesus but how could some one rise after death ? and how come no one else has since ? and how could some one commit miracles out of league IMPOSSIBLE. i think religion is a scam of making money Christians are scared of death therefore keep the *story* going. Apparently Jesus created the *holy bible* , although every one knows his *disciples did*. I really think religion is very stupid . Yes religious people are dim-witted.

Thanks and keep nasty comments to your self

Answer: Religious is not a synonym for stupid. There are stupid people in all walks of life. There are also people who are intolerant, and people who make statements without having any clue what they're talking about. (For example, Christians do NOT believe Jesus created The Bible, as the above poster seems to think they do.) "Statistically the less religious a person is..." Whose statistics? What religion? The majority of the world's religions seem to agree that we should not go around killing others, and we should seek to help the less fortunate. There's nothing stupid about that. Extremists and zealots are problematical, but being a religious fanatic does not cause stupidity anymore than being fanatically anti-religious does.

There is absolutely no reason to believe that there is any difference in intelligence between religious and non-religious people. Non-religious people can arguably claim to be more independent thinkers, but this does not mean that they are more intelligent, nor that they are less intelligent than religious people.

People who do not have a God addiction given to them by parents forcing the concept of God on them are able to think outside the imposed restrictions of religious indoctrination and sometimes appear to be geniuses , which is thought to be related to high IQ

Who do Intelligent Design people believe in?

The principal proponents of "Intelligent Design", such as the creationist Discovery Institute, claim that Intelligent Design is not a religious argument, and they are therefore neutral as to who the Designer actually is. In practice, virtually all proponents of this hypothesis are Christians. They therefore believe in the Abrahamic God, and seek to have people believe that Intelligent Design proves his existence.For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation
