Do you think that those who believe that Humans cannot know everything about the universe and believes that somebody that is far greater than his/her understanding exists and that earthly evidence like Scientific findings cannot prove it, is less intelligent??? Its like racism you see you are judging the person based on only one thing and already assumed that you are far more superior than he is, intellectualy

OK I'm at a loss.! Humans are finding the answers...It's scientific evidence. But all the answers are yet to be discovered.Yet, there's enough evidence out there to Question creation as Genesis teaches it! Let's face it...Really now..We're seeing things 50,000, 000 light years away now...You have to think about it.

Yes, less intelligent. The claim that we cannot know everything about the universe is a metaphysical claim; so is the claim about belief in a higher power. Most idiotic of all is the use of phrases like "earthy evidence", as if there were another kind (which would also be a metaphysical claim). So you are (again) wrong in asserting that my judgment is based on only one thing. I have demonstrated a pattern, and that pattern points to imbecility. QED

Rule by an individual is a dictatorship. Humans are social creatures and survival DEPENDS on there being male and female and that there are multiple couples.
Therefore, the idea that there is but one deity, it's a he and 'he' is perfect, is illogical.
It is true however that I can not understand why any all-powerful deity would allow the Crusades, Inquisition, Black Plague or Holocaust (etc) to happen.

I am already smarter than 95% of the population, so it is a safe bet I am a step ahead of whomever. That said, an individuals faith means nothing to me, when I am discussing intellectual issues. I am a database programmer, and I apprenticed under a Lutheran, and have met many religious people in my line. Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, Jews, etc.
Considering them my intellectual lessors would be STOOPID.

I do not think that I am more intelligent than "believers". It is very hard to give up the comfort that religion gives you, but personally the truth is more important to me than comfort. Also I am uncomfortable with the amount of bigotry advocated by some churches.
However I do giggle when Christians spell things wrong..... but hey you all think I'm going to hell anyway.........

Somebody once told me that there is no Santa Clause, and it was silly to think he lives at the North Pole. That person was judging me and thought they were more intelligent than I.
Come to think of it they were racists to people who were fat and wore red.
Come on, racism? Give me a break.
