We are all atheists about most of the gods that humanity has ever believed in ..." Richard Dawkins on 'Militant Atheism' (2007).
Richard Dawkins encourages us to speaks out against the "the poverty stricken arsenal of the religious imagination".
Of 43 studies since 1927 on the relationship between religious belief and intelligence or education level, all but 4 showed an inverse connection. That is to say, the less intelligence or less well educated, the more likely one is to be religious and vice versa ... highest positions are barred to those who are intelligent and honest.
