LordReed: The truth of the matter is that “Spinoza’s God” is the God of Moses, The God of the Magis, and it is all of the trinities. They are all talking about “the heavens”. |

Workch: @LordReed we once discussed this. That so called atheist always claim to be higher in intelligence but you said you never read that before on NL. Now you have it. Prof Workch has done it again. |

hupernikao:It's not a claim, study upon studies have proven that atheist score higher in IQ tests than average theists. You can deny it all you want but facts don't respect opinions. You need to be smart above average to disbelief all the nonsense in the Bible. People below average in intelligence like you are easily swayed to believe without evidence |

BRATISLAVA:Don't you think that it's people with IQ below average that will instantaneously belive the story of a snake talking to Eve? Someone with a rational brain would probably ask for evidence for that event. That's how religious people easily fail IQ tests, they are not smart enough to stuffs 1 Like |

jesusjnr2020:It's funny how someone who believes the ridiculous stories of the Bible thinks he has a working Brain You can't have an above average IQ and still think the earth was created in 6days, you have to be full of shit peddled by religion to hold such nonsense. How can you believe that a human can walk on water and expect people to think that you are a smart person? |

KnownUnknown: That cannot be because Spinoza believed that God is “the sum of the natural and physical laws of the universe and certainly not an individual entity or creator” |

This one dey find consolation prize. He's constantly reminded that the FOOL has said in his heart that there's no God. The biggest Fools open their mouth and hand to say and type it. Look around you, see your parents, siblings, friends, teachers, professors, supervisors, managers and bosses. All of them are theists, but you foolishly play the ostrich believing in some online articles. Use your God given brain man. |

Workch: Now to your useless research, study and question. We've known this already for more than 2000years, it's laughable that you are still looking for it. 1Co 1:20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 1Co 1:27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty You may read the verses in between the passage to help your new studies and findings. God doesn't behave like dumb humans who make the important things unaffordable. Humans create a system where what they need is only affordable by few. God makes the most important things like salvation, fellowship, spiritual growth, and Heaven very affordable that nobody has an excuse. You can be the poorest, weakest, dumbest and most neglected persons and still be saved, have fellowship with the Highest, grow up in grace, and of course live eternally with God. If you don't like the system, listen very often to the words of comrade Oshiomole "Go and ..." |

BRATISLAVA:You're welcomed dear. The welfare of our Master's sheep is very important to us, that's why we do our best to guide them, and pray for them everyday so they'd remain on course and not go astray, and you're His sheep, aren't you? So it's no big deal... I'm just doing my job. However you have to also do yours and try and stay on track, so that our job would be made easier. God bless u too sis. |

Workch:Please point to the studies. Most of the greatest scientific minds from time have been Men of religion. From the priests of Egypt and Babylon to Isaac Newton much of the world's greatest thinkers had a religious background. So the studies you claim, how many years back do they go? how far-reaching are they? What variables were considered before coming to such conclusions? https://digest.bps.org.uk/2018/01/26/are-religious-people-really-less-smart-on-average-than-atheists/ |

Bragging about IQ is one of the most pathetic things someone can do. You can be intelligent regardless of your religious belief or lack of. Great minds and great inventors through history studied, and worked super hard to achieve success in their respective fields. What they didn't do was sit around and talk about how smart they thought they were. |

tctrills:You didn't go to the reference, don't be lazy. Learn to carefully read. However it doesn't mean that every athiest is smarter than every theists, these studies only proves that "by average", religious people tend to be less intelligent than irreligious people and are less successful in IQ tests and any test that has to do with critical reasoning. I mean, no one should be surprised with these result. Religious people make decisions by intuition then by critical reasoning, that's why they believe religious myths spontaneously.

CoolUsername:It's not bragging, it's reality which is hard to swallow. It takes an IQ above average to be able to question religion and this doesn't mean that we don't have extraordinarily smart religious people, it only proves that religion is most likely harboring the extremely stupid set of people in the society. We have seen that consistently in their inability to grasp basic concepts. Religion is also a heaven for conspiracy theories because it harbors the most irrational people in the society. 1 Like |
