you think that thinking about abstract stuff like religion attracts dumber people than psychology???

Theology is a branch of philosophy, you will note philosophy is third highest

Somehow I did expect that.

>>8134604
I didn't realize that barely above/bellow 50% counted as "most".
http://www.pewforum.org/2009/11/05/scientists-and-belief/
Although you could say that the percentage of religious scientists is significantly higher in developing countries/third world shitholes, and significantly lower in developed first world countries.

Yes, "most" is synonymous with "majority." 50% or more is the legal definition of a "majority."

>GRE scores
>intended major

Only prospective grad students take the GRE, and you don't have a major (let alone an intended one) in grad school. This data seems to be representative only of grad students. hat would explain how it's all above the global average of 100, but it still is probably all bullshit.
>>
>>8133991
Hmm. Theology is the study of a non-existent sky fairy, and philosophy is actual reasoning.

Which is better?
>>
>>8134743
>non-existent sky fairy
As opposed to an existent sky fairy?

Anyway, theology is great if you want to, you know, have a greater understanding of the past 2000 years of Western civilization. The greatest painters, scientists, novelists, philosophers, etc were influenced by Christianity in some way.

Also, to call the Christian God a sky fairy shows an ignorance of theology and the intellectual understanding of God.

You're being too nitpicky. It's what they're going to study in grad school, generally.

Most protestant preachers don't have graduate degrees in religious studies or theology. The idiots you see aren't the ones with a degree.

Not him, but:

It's not impossible at all. I remember last year we had a thread about a physics major in a top school who was about to graduate and he was worried about jobs because his IQ was close to 100 or something like that. Hard work goes a long way anon.

>>8133991
except philosophy is not solely based on false assumptions and just fallacy all around

wow anon, perfect fucking way to describe any religion -- fallacy / ideological bias
I completely forgot about those words

>>8135244
>>8135253

A huge percentage of the world's is completely brainwashed by religion and that is somehow not worth studying?

Do you think religion scholars are just studying to become better Christians? Use your brain.

Yeah but the amount of people that fit that description, that are doing that for the reason you stated make the minority not majority.

And by minority I mean, really low percentage, undoubtedly.

Don't reply to me anymore until you learn proper English. By the way, ad hominems are respectable modes of argumentation; in fact, ad hominems are literally the base of argumentation.

Just stop, anon. Stop trying to be smart, your IQ is low, just deal with it. And stop polluting science with your baby-level philosophy.

Natural atheism is sort of a shibboleth for intelligence is all.

/sci/ is and always has been polluted by /pol/ blood. It's perfectly normal to find morons like yourself being happily ignored by geniuses here.
