wat meaninful contribution will i make in a dump thread like this one?? infact akintom let keep our differences aside and answer this questions honestly. our comment and post here go along way to show people with better IQ. with all sincererity, do you think you are more logical than theist on this forum such as kingebuka,winner01 and 4ever? guy we know intelligent atheist on this forum and i can assure you that Akintom is not one of them.

akintom:


Do you for any reason know something about research DESIGNS?

can you review different researches with different designs together?

akintom:



The only way you can prove that you have anything close to average intelligence, is to look into this study, and disprove each of the conclusions reached, with superior works.

You sure don't know how philosophy, metaphysics and physical sciences shape reasoning.

foladara777:

So there is a relationship between Christianity and emotional intelligence. And there is a relationship between emotional intelligence and success. Why are Christians not the most successful in the world??

foladara777:

Hello. It's me again... Plss address the actual statistics adduced by the Op... The one that says atheists generally have higher IQ than theists... There are loopholes in every study, I know u can find them, when u do, list them and let us address them

akintom:


Irrelevant stuff to this thread.

You're still confirming the study (lack of discipline in thinking and reasoning),

hopefulLandlord:


bro there's an unwritten rule here not to antagonise one of your own if you can help it

did you see the way Grizzlybear did his own?

PDBonline:

Why asking me such a rude question. Are you that arrogant? If I don't know anything I will (and I have been) quoting the works of those who do. Just follow the links I am assisting you and your cohorts with. Then come back and teach me what is wrong with their analysis instead of distracting yourself about me okay. That's if you really want to learn.

Vick4rill:
guy am not in for baseless arguement this afternoon. it is very foolish to claim that atheist are more logical than religious people simply cus they are atheist. anybody can be logical base on the way he or she uses his brain. please try reading other intelligent post from fellow atheist and theist, in other to get some sense.

akintom:


Why are you so consumed with complex.

What makes you think, that i can't point out your error to you?

You didn't read my response to you with understanding, that's why you're claiming infallibility now.

I told you that the design of the study i posted is different from the one you're referring me to.

A montessori pupil knows that there's is no basis, of comparison between two studies, with different research designs.

mrmrmister:
Mr Op, where the hell did you come up with your theory?
Yes, it takes reasoning to be able to doubt religion
But what makes you think every atheist became atheist through their own reasoning?
What makes you think some weren't simply influenced?

I can't really type an epistle right now
But my conclusion is:
Being an atheist doesn't necessarily mean you're intelligent, neither does being religious mean you're dumb.

It all depends on the circumstances that led to whichever one you are.

peacesamuel94:
really ? what about religious people that later turn atheist, does atheism automatically enhance their IQ level ?


Aside that, i Will say that your belief system has no effect On your intelligence, anybody can be dumb or intelligent irrespective of their belief system.
Religious people have contributed To science Just as much as atheists if not more, as a matter of fact the Father of modern science was religious, did his belief reduce his IQ ? The thread is really unnecessary.

PDBonline:
A studies from Havard shows that Cognitive Style rather than IQ reveals why peolle change what they believe and gravitate towards theism or atheism : http://www.anth.uconn.edu/degree_programs/ecolevo/divineintuition.pdf

To have many researches on the subject in one place just Google religiousity and intelligence, Wikipedia : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religiosity_and_intelligence

akintom if you finished reading the Wikipedia article and still believe in the hasty conclusions of researchers published on dailymail then...

akintom:



You guys are good study sample again and again.

Intelligence measurement, takes ability to comprehend focused effort into cognizance. And that's what most of you lack here.

You simply didn't understand the study and how to make inference from it. Otherwise you wouldn't post this off comment.

mrmrmister:


I am an atheist, so how come you think I'm dumb?
Am I not supposed to be an almighty genius?

Ahemm Akintom your part 1 thread was demolished. Your Part 2 thread has also been demolished.

I suggest you go do a check on your own IQ because if you would post a part 1 and you were shown how stupid it was in clear terms like putting a Pitbull in a ring with a rat (you being the rat) yet you still went ahead to put up a part 2 then seriously you need to submit yourself for an IQ test.

I have repeatedly warned you against ARMCHAIR ATHEISM but you never seem to take counsel. Now behold your IQ

PDBonline:
Bye pls.

akintom:


You know me before now, that none of you mentally indecent theists on NL, can match me when it comes to the use of derogatory and condescending use of adjectives.

But i did that to confirm how unreal and hypocritic you folks are, when it comes to what your religion called fruit of the spirit.

All of you are stinking of the worst filthiness that can be seen in the folks that you arrogantly and hypocritically called sinners.

Otherwise you wouldn't be exhibiting a thinking quality that falls below that of kg 1 pupil.

PDBonline:


1. I don't have any reason to claim infallibility and I didnt so don't bother trying to say I did.
People can discuss without trying to demean someone else.

2. Read the link on Wikipedia and you will understand how they are related. The link you posted is not the research. It's dailymail an online news paper. Okay.

In the end it is how objective the interpretation is what what obtains in real life that counts and that studies conclusion holds no ground. There are better conclusions that can be drawn from it. Follow the Wikipedia link : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religiosity_and_intelligence
