Christians and muslims are dumb because they base their belief on faith, which means, do not question , just follow what is written in the book . The church and mullahs has to say that because otherwise, the Bible or the koran becomes a crock, with many inconsistencies and many things that simply do not make sense.
So they stay dumb and traditional for another couple of years?

This is the same question you asked before.
It was hurtful and ignorant then, and it is hurtful and ignorant now.
edit -- to the user below. Nowhere in this "question" does this person claim to be atheist.
I answered in defense of Christians ansd Muslims, and *I* am an atheist.

Interesting. I love you athiest. You keep bashing and bashing for no reason whatsoever. You keep telling us how dumb we are and how brilliant and logical you all are.
Faith = Not questioning? Since when? Oh the logic of it all! I can not speak for muslims but if I did not question my teachers I'd still be a baptist. I would never have gained the understanding that I now have.
I know its really hard for you to comprehend, such simple ideas are to far beneath your contempt for you to even acknowledge it, but we do read other books besides the bible. Oh the logic of it all! They follow the bible so they read no other books. I love you guys. You are your own worst enemy.
A very recent question I asked I quoted several passages from one of your religions heros of faith, Margaret Sangier, from her books. And the Athiests response? Urban Legend! Golly gee Polly Anna I didn't make up her quotes. They are a matter of record. Who was denying the facts then? Hmm?
I love you guys. Keep up the good work. You make yourselves look like what we know you are.

Actually, ur wrong there. Islam encourages questions and actual thought. That is one of the reasons why I became a Muslim. It wasn't the "just have faith" strategy.
Btw, you sound pretty shallow yourself by stating that others who are different from you are dumb.

So you asked some questions.
People do that.
Perhaps they were of the same quality as this question, and seemed crude and badly thought through, from the beginning.
I can kind of see where you're headed, but you need to refine your arguments.

Your definition of 'faith' stems from false religion.
Of course, false religion will say "just beleive, don't question" because they teach lies and do not want to be exposed.
However, even though some doctors are quacks, it doesn't mean medecine is a crock.
Same with religion.

you shouldnt say that "christians and muslims are dumb." maybe you arent as fortunate to put all your trust into your faith. you doubt. and that might be why you have such anger about the subject
