paerarru 12/08/20 4:49:26 PM #26:	Yeah it depends on what you mean by "super religious". Fundamentalist fanatics? No, and I don't think you will find many. Very smart but also quite religious? Yes, plenty. I've actually attended religious services with no less than two of my professors, and I'm pretty sure that some others were quite religious people, too. toadfan64 posted... Do I know intelligent religious people? Yes, many in my family I would consider fairly intelligent and most are religious. Most of them are very open minded as well, and accepting of new ideas. Even the annoying religious fanatics I do know though are still less insufferable than the reddit/online atheists. Mmhmm. I actually have met some very, very religious people that are still not complete idiots. I think that intelligence doesn't correlate so much with your beliefs but rather with what your beliefs entail. For example I believe abortion is wrong, largely on what people would call religious reasons. But I know much better than to think that means I should vote for Trump. Or practically any Republican. --- Hottest K-Pop Girl Group http://challonge.com/96st4ysk <cite>paerarru posted [p:948073459] in Do you per...
