religious people less intelligent than atheist, page-15

maglincer,

Nothing new here, this was pointed out about a thousand years ago.

"The world holds two classes of men – intelligent men without religion, and religious men without intelligence."
Abu'l-Ala-Al-Ma'arri, 973-1057 CE, Syrian poet

I wonder what Abu'l-Ala-Al-Ma'arri would say about Syria today, given the mess it is in because of religion.
