Can you prove a decrease in religion results in an increase of
intelligence ? There seem to be examples to the contrary here.


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?


A species with more advanced technology and understanding of
genetics. No actual 'God' required.

Hmmm. I most certainly don't understand how I can access a copy of a
zip file but then not be able to unzip it so I can watch it. That
seems VERY clever!
