Answer 1

Many atheists tend to think that they are smart because they *know* the truth about religion.



Religious people, in the minds of atheists, are stupid by definition. Therefore, a country where 80% of the population is religious, that proves the country is 80% idiotic.



Your references to educated religious people means nothing to atheists. They will simply wonder how such a smart person believes in something so stupid.

Answer 2

Greeny, being a christian IMPLIES stupidity. It demands that you believe things that you know aren't true.



I would expect that there are higher universities (note spelling) in the Peru, or in Nepal. I suspect you mean that USA has got the best universities, and while you are correct, some of them are quite good, having a latin motto about your cult is NOT what makes them good.

Answer 3

The Green Goblin, people say the US is stupid because the public schools are so far behind other countries, and creationists trying to push propaganda in public schools makes us look extremely backward.



Look up the percentages of the student body, faculty and staff at these colleges that believe in a God, and you will be surprised.

Answer 4

... Universities are extremely secular in nature. Regardless of how some of them have mottos that could be interrupted as Christian, they are houses of learning. Religion does not have a role in this.

Answer 5

Having some intelligent people in a country does not redeem the ignorant masses from their idiocy.

Answer 6

Some people are haters. You can not rationalize that which is irrational. You will drive yourself crazy trying.

Answer 7

i'm an athiest and i've only met a few others in my lifetime (directly) most are funamentalist christians

Answer 8

Knowledge and logic are two different things.

Btw...any moron can get a degree.

Answer 9
