Put my name on the list and the scale would go in the opposite direction.

Re: Interesting article about religion and high IQs
Christianity is and always has been a very "science friendly" religion, typically.
Not, for sure some corporate sectors have been a bit "anti-science" at times, the religion in of itself is not.
It is a religion based on reason and rational IF one choose to see it for what it is a NOT what others make it out to be.

Re: Interesting article about religion and high IQs
Who measures IQ's?
Man measures intelligence., but GOD doesn't., GOD measures the heart and mind! The weight of the soul!
You can have the most educated doctor or engineer, but if that one is without GOD, then his/her IQ is null and void
and you can have the most downtrodden person in any place living poor and so-called unschooled but yet, have the simplest faith in Christ..
and that one to me ~> has the highest IQ in the world., for they perceive the true "intelligence" of the world., true IQ

Your outward profession of having put on Christ, has as yet to put off Plato from your heart!

Re: Interesting article about religion and high IQs
I am extremely hurt and insulted. Do you think it is OK to make sport of a poor, defenseless person like me? All my life I have had to overcome extreme difficulties: poverty, parental abuse, bullies, no education, bad jobs, false friends...you name the bad luck, I've had it. It has taken me years and years to get a little bit of self-esteem and now you and RickD have TAKEN IT AWAY!1over137 wrote: Maybe putting FL on the list would make it go back
Oh! I'm so looonely! Nooobody loves me! I think I shall cry myself to sleep.
