Can you prove a decrease in religion results in an increase of

I'd say the increase in intelligence causes the decrease in religion.
Clever folk realise what they've been taught is a load of ****e.

Some people increase intelligence as they
increase religion. My church congregation
has a couple doctors, and a couple attorneys.
Those professions tend to continuing
education.

There are many different types of intelligence. Common sense tells us
not to believe ****ing unlikely things which have not one ounce of
proof.

Many people believe that it is sensible to conclude that based on
everything we know about our world and the universe that it's likely
that something greater than chance was involved in it's creation.
Since, for example, with all the complexities involved in how the human
body works, what would it take to create something that had such complex
systems that had to work together so it could function as a human?

Logically, it's an intelligent conclusion to seek out what sort of
higher power could have created everything.
