Christians - people who believe in a book that has gone unchanged for countless centuries, and praises an entity that cannot be established by science alone
Atheist - people who proclaim Christians are sheep for believing in what they can't see and limiting there beliefs to what is in a book, while at the same time professing the truths about atoms, when they haven't seen one.
ACLU - the American double standard, in which it's ok to force your beliefs down someone's throat as long as it's not Christian. That claims San Francisco needs to change its seal as to remove any Christian references, however fails to realize any Christian association with the word San Francisco

All three. What you believe does not necessarily determine your quotient of intelligence.

Is there room for an fourth choice?
My answer is those who ask an insulting question, slamming three groups of whom the seem to know quite little. These are the trolls, shearching to do nothing other than elicit vehement responses from others, with a peacock-like display of a lack of knowledge.
Believe it or not, there are Christians in the ACLU. There are Atheists and Christians and ACLU members all working side-by-side. It's on boards like this, where no knowledge or understanding is requisite, that people can toss insults to the wind and still expect to recieve back some modicum of respect.
Yeah, I guess that it's group 4 that has the IQ (As Professor Hathaway in the movie Real Genius put it) of a carrot.

Hello again Adam (the guy who fails to respond after issuing a debate challenge to an Atheist on why the human eye is a terrible example of ID...)
I do enjoy the question....it is so obvious how you tiptoed around your definition of a Christian, but then made the Atheist and ACLU look real ugly and lame... Nice job, spinmaster.
Seems way back in the 1940's, us Atheist scientists managed to SPLIT IN HALF that which you claim we cannot see, thus inventing the atomic bomb....so it cant be the Atheists that are the most stupid in this case.... Lets go on...
While the ACLU's statement to change the seal of SF is, in my opinion, lame, the very fact that the name is "christian" in orgin means squat. If ORIGIN means anything, then who do CHristians ignore the ORIGIN of their religious symbols and holidays and myths??
Wow, starting to look like the Christians are the best choice for this answer....

It's all a very good point except the atom thing they have pictured them using electron microscopes.
I am not anti-religion as such but you need to look at the facts as science hs unveiled new knowledge about the univerese christianity has had to change its story.
Forst the Earth was flat and the heavens in the sky and they burned people for saying otherwise. Now the story is that the heavens really meant outside the Universe and we never said the earth was flat.
Look if it is the words of God then surely he would have already been aware the earth was round and not flat afterall he did make it.

Talk about a loaded question. I never did see the point in asking a question you've already designed an appropriate answer for.
So instead of playing your game, I'll correct something for you.
Hatred towards christianity, by atheists, is not necessarily at the christian followers themselves. We don't think them to be unintelligent .. we think them weak and gullible.
Atheists believe what can be seen and proven, simple as that. We choose to disbelieve in the all seeing, all powerful, all knowing deity because the claims cannot be proven, the bible has been disproven time and time again and the entire religion aspect makes no logical sense.
And just for the sake of argument, the most intelligent people in history, and some of the most intelligent today (nobel prize winners, acclaimed biologists, etc) are atheists. Higher intelligence itself seems to require proof or validity to preposterous claims ... they tend to go hand in hand. A truly intelligent person would seek proof before spouting the existence of something that makes no logical sense.

Add yourself to the list and you get my vote because I doubt that most individuals in the three other groups would consider seven as 'countless.' In addition, your statement after 'Atheist' is a misleading, inaccurate, outdated oversimplification. A more accurate statement would be: Atheists - people who proclaim Christians are sheep for believing in what they can't see and limit their beliefs to what is in a book even though there is zero evidence to support what they believe, while at the same time professing the truths about atoms, when they haven't seen one, putting their faith solely in the mountains of evidence and unanimous consensus of physicists worldwide plus of course actual pictures showing individual atoms since that technology has been around for at least twenty years. Those of us not living under the christian rock of ignorance knew that. Anyone wanting further edification can google 'seeing atoms' Thank you for posting your question.

Why use energy to judge groups? It is wrong to think of any group as having clones for members. In general, I prefer atheists over Christians, but I have many Christian friends I love dearly; conversely, I've met some really prickly atheists. The ACLU has members of a variety of religions. America is the "melting pot," and those that have a problem with that need to leave the country!

Tough one. Atheism and atoms have nothing to do with each other though, so that analogy is crap... ACLU analogy is also kind of ridiculous, although they do have issues, but even the ACLU who PEOPLE (not the organization itself) portray as a liberal entity stepped in to defend Rush Limbaugh on his privacy claim. So, I would say Christians for sure. Science has proven atoms are real, but "god" has never been proven.

I've never seen an atom, Adam, but God didn't show us how to do a thing. Were there computers in the bible? Guitars? CDs? I don't think Christians are stupid people, but I will say Christian for this argument.
