Shit, he's so young. Look at him!

Being an Atheist does not cause intelligence. But being an atheist is an indication of critical and skeptical thought which is a result of intelligence.

In short, if you're more educated or intelligent, you're more likely to be an Atheist.

No, but having an in depth understanding of how societies and cultures evolve over thousands of years, knowing that there have many religions that all claim to be correct, and that none of these religious faiths can produce a single god or shred of evidence will make you agnostic. Realizing all of these things is simply more common in individual with higher IQ, but simply being agnostic doesn't make you more intelligent.

an Atheist is just an annoying agnostic.

Cruz is married to Goldman sachs which is personally responsible for a lot of fucked up shit in America, and pretends he isn't owned by half of big corporations, flip flops his campaign stance when convenient, and plays his campaign like a weaker, uglier, Donald trump.

DT is honest that he does have personal interest in making America great so that he can succeed so his businesses can better perform, and doesn't take shit from anyone.

Also cruz is the zodiak killer and is cucknadian.

i realize some people might see trump this way. the main difference i see is that trump doesnt appear to be hiding anything when he talks. that's why he gets himself into so much trouble. i'd rather have that than someone like cruz, who is obviously a conniver.

also, policy-wise trump is the only nationalist in the running and that's why i like him.

“The more I study science, the more I believe in God.”

–Albert Einstein
(The Wall Street Journal, Dec 24, 1997, article by Jim Holt, “Science Resurrects God.”)
>
“People take it for granted that the physical world is both ordered and intelligible. The underlying order in nature-the laws of physics-are simply accepted as given, as brute facts. Nobody asks where they came from; at least they do not do so in polite company. However, even the most atheistic scientist accepts as an act of faith that the universe is not absurd, that there is a rational basis to physical existence manifested as law-like order in nature that is at least partly comprehensible to us. So science can proceed only if the scientist adopts an essentially theological worldview.”

–Physicist Paul Davies, the winner of the 2001 Kelvin Medal issued by the Institute of Physics and the winner of the 2002 Faraday Prize issued by the Royal Society (amongst other awards), as cited in his book God and the New Physics (first quote), and from his acceptance address of the 1995 Templeton Prize (second quote).

“Astronomers who do not draw theistic or deistic conclusions are becoming rare, and even the few dissenters hint that the tide is against them. Geoffrey Burbidge, of the University of California at San Diego, complains that his fellow astronomers are rushing off to join ‘the First Church of Christ of the Big Bang.’”

–Astrophysicist Hugh Ross, former post-doctoral fellow at the California Institute of Technology and author of The Creator and the Cosmos: How the Latest Scientific Discoveries of the Century Reveal God.

“The fanatical atheists are like slaves who are still feeling the weight of their chains which they have thrown off after hard struggle. They are creatures who – in their grudge against traditional religion as the ‘opium of the masses’ – cannot hear the music of the spheres.”

—Albert Einstein

“Both religion and science require a belief in God. For believers, God is in the beginning, and for physicists He is at the end of all considerations… To the former He is the foundation, to the latter, the crown of the edifice of every generalized world view.”

“There can never be any real opposition between religion and science; for the one is the complement of the other. Every serious and reflective person realizes, I think, that the religious element in his nature must be recognized and cultivated if all the powers of the human soul are to act together in perfect balance and harmony. And indeed it was not by accident that the greatest thinkers of all ages were deeply religious souls.”

—Max Planck, the Nobel Prize winning physicist who made the crucial scientific contribution of founding quantum physics.

no it does not.
the quote "the first sip from the glass of science there is atheism, but god is waiting at the bottom of that glass" is (or something like that) is right.

i had a edgy/not really edgy period of my life where i thought all religious people are less intelligent and they are sheep and I am not etc. etc.

once you read and study a lot more you learn that religion for normal people (aka everyone thats not a genius / controlling class) at least gives you drive and passion for life that will ultimately make you more wise than an atheist that rejects to look at religion as a foolish cult.

It's just a quirk of quantum mechanics. There is a limit to what our brain can comprehend, and apparently those quantum erasers and spooky reverse causality are too much. There is a point when things stop making sense - your brain can't create a convincing internal model for it, so it looks for other ways to comfort itself. In the future when they build AIs smart enough to have the capacity to truly understand (in neurobiological sense) these phenomena, they can tell us if you should actually become a theist over it or not.

Psychometrics tells us that, while being an atheist doesn't "make" you more intelligent, intelligent people are more likely to be atheists.

Here's a GSS Wordsum (0.71 correlation with g) bell curve, in which respondents who self-identified as nonbelievers scored significantly higher (10 pt scale) on the task. This is kind of unsurprising and is a decently corroborated finding among psychometric circles.

Insofaras societies in which the young are inculcated with religiosity, we would expect for it to take some kind of "novel thinking" and intellectual fortitude to come to such abnormal conclusions, if I can call them that. However, the corollary to this manifests in such a way that, when atheism/agnosticism is the cultural norm throughout the society, there really is no correlation. This is because they are born into this culture and their lack of beliefs are not by virtue of their intellectual curiosity.

There's not really a correlation between intelligence and religion. Religion tends to be a community type thing. People are religious because it gives them a sense of purpose, a belonging to a fellow group of people. They accept the concept of God and such because they want to.

I'd say most religious people would be atheists if they looked at it rationally, but they don't want to, and for good reason.

That saying only exists because the unknown always scares people. Every time a scientist go far enough they give up and say everything else was done by God. Then a while later, someone else comes along and finds that it isn't God.

Happens over and over and over. For scientists at least, religion is the opposite of a motivator. For the average joe working a dead end job though, its decent for motivation.

Guaranteed to make you less theistic. May make you more intelligent (depending how you define it).

Yes/No
>Do you believe that (any) God exists?
This question is not a question of fact, but a question of belief. And so how you respond does not intrinsically indicate the state of your knowledge.

However, your belief in (any) God may be a column holding up beliefs that are clearly nonfactual, such as geocentricism, meme magic, or the miracles of Mohammad. Destroying that column, if supporting such clear untruths, reduces the amount of proven falsehoods you consider to be facts. Improving your pool of knowledge.

In some cases, becoming an atheist does little to one's pool of knowledge as there may be no pieces of knowledge relying on the belief in question. It could be a simple change in how you answer the single yes/no question.

I don't see this often in Ireland, but I know some hardcore american christfags here. And I do tend to notice when the get into stressful life situations they tend to ignore reality and trust God will make it work out for them, and what ever happens is what he had planned for them.
