Having recently found the wikipedia page [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Religiosity_and_intelligence Religiosity and intelligence], I found myself in the strange situation of not knowing where to look for another perspective. Clearly they misinterpret the results of the few studies cited, but it would be very interesting to see if any studies provide different results or at least discuss the accuracy of the cited studies. It would be great to see an article [[Religiosity and intelligence]] on Conservapedia to provide a rebuttal to the other wiki. -- [[User:Jehoshaphat|Jehoshaphat]] 00:20, 9 August 2012 (EDT)

:Clearly there is a link.  Newton was a devout Christian and look what he achieved!!  Whether the link is causative or merely correlative is hard to say.  On the one hand God is likely to look with favour on his adherents, but on the other it may be that intelligent people are just more likely to believe in God.  I am not aware of any biblical references that will help you with your research, but others may be able to assist.  --[[User:DamianJohn|DamianJohn]] 07:14, 9 August 2012 (EDT)
