I’m getting the distinct impression atheists, or at least the ones on this thread, are intellectually challenged.

Wow. The subject was essentially; "From where do atheists get their morality." You asked what if the other person ignores that morality. I gave you a tongue-in-cheek answer since it was off-subject and you insult all the non-believers on this thread. Thanks, brother Freeper.

Sorry.

But, I must stand by my observation.

I expect a higher level of intellectual rigor from those who wear the mantle of rationality and adherence to science etc...

But it is so often not forthcoming.

My observation is not only from this thread. I’ve noticed self proclaimed proselytizing atheists often are rather weak when in comes to reasoned argument or understanding of science.

I think they do trend to being slightly more intelligent than average and having some knowledge on scientific or technical areas.

But that actually becomes a stumbling block to them in that they think they know more than they do and are smarter than they are.

I think it is common among those with narrow dogmatic beliefs.
