As intelligence increases with each generation, religion decreases.


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.


Religion is only the outward expression of a desire or acknowledgement
that a greater power exists beyond our own selves.



Yes I know what religion is, and it's nonsensical.
