Atheists are a very small minority of Latinos (see: Atheism and Latino Americans). Among intellectual, atheism is more prevalent among communists (see: Atheism and communism).
Despite atheists being on the left side of political spectrum and celebrating diversity, Western atheists rarely cite the works Hispanic atheist philosophers.
Social scientists have shown little interests in studying the IQs/intelligence of Latino atheists.
National IQ of Cuba compared to more religious Latino countries
The non-religious/atheists are about 24% of Cuba's population. The national IQ of Cuba is 85.[1]
In Argentina, where 10.3% describe themselves as atheist, agnostics, or having no religion, the national IQ is 93.[2][1] In addition, the more religious Latino countries of Chile, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Mexico and Bolivia also have higher national IQ scores than Cuba.[1]
After the 1959 communist revolution, the government of Cuba did not restrict religious practice to the extent that was done in the Soviet Union. However, the large atheist population in Cuba compared to other Latino nations, was caused by its communist history (see: Atheism and communism).
In addition, religious individuals were not allowed to join the Cuban Communist Party due to religion being incompatible to the party's Marxist philosophy.
