Primal said:With the exception of very few people that I've met (and they are *extremely* rare and are my close friends for a reason), why are Christians such absolute morons? Seriously. What the fuck. You literally don't even need to go to some church to see it for yourself. If you just go to a Christian forum and talk to these people, you'll very soon realize their intelligence levels are insanely, *insanely* low.
I have one explanation: Their religious book is nothing but simplistic tales for 5 year olds. It offers no deeper philosophical insights or complex theology. So when your mental diet consists of believing that the world was created in 7 days or the first woman was created from the first man or that Jesus was born from a literal virgin and the rainbow exists because of God's promise to Noah, it's almost sure that you will not be able to form complex thoughts because your mental level will be as a 5 year old's for your entire life.
That's why the famous Catholic theologians like Augustine and Thomas Aquinas mixed Greek philosophy with Christianity to create their theology and ethical philosophy. They were more Platonic/Aristotelian than Christian. Those Christians who study them are more intelligent than average Christians, but those Bible thumpers who insist on reading only the Bible and nothing else are often absolute morons.
