Exclusive: Ohio State core class teaches Christians are dumber than atheists
An Ohio State University (OSU) class has apparently determined another fundamental difference between Christians and atheists: their IQ points.
(Excerpt) Read more at collegeinsurrection.com ...
It's a little more than that. It's actual advocacy for discrimination against Christians. This is how the literature of the Aryan Nations movement would describe nonwhites, or how textbooks from Imperial Japan would treat Koreans or Filipinos.
> As I understand the article, this is not OSU teaching, just a student project giving opinions, not “hard Science.” It would take years to determine any correlation and would never be Science anyway because it relies on opinion, not facts.
In other words another group of indoctrinated liberals lied to impart their own personal beliefs based completely on their “feelings”. I’m shocked...
“It’s actual advocacy for discrimination against Christians. This is how the literature of the Aryan Nations movement would describe nonwhites, or how textbooks from Imperial Japan would treat Koreans or Filipinos.”
Good point; I wonder how Ohio State teaches about the difference in academic achievement between blacks and whites...
Why did they say “Christians” and not “Muslims”? Such brave atheists to pick on the one religion they know will tolerate their ignorance...
A dumb guy with eyes that see can find the light more readily than a smart guy who is blind. Eyes that see are a gift from The Lord.
That's not what the article says at all.
While the student said the quizzes were based on the textbook used in class, an OSU employee in the psychology department who wished to remain nameless said quizzes are oftentimes created by the teacher’s assistant.
There's a great deal of the passive voice here to dodge responsibility, but it's clear that the quizzes are from some combination of the textbook authors and/or the instructor and/or his assistant, NOT students. This "instruction" has the authority of Ohio State behind it.
“...the only reason that evolution is taught in schools is because a lawuit where the only evidence for evolution was an alleged missing link tooth that later turned out to be a wild hog tooth. Athiests smarter?”
Google “helicopter hog hunts” for proof that wild hogs are smarter than humans.
Are atheists smarter than Christians? Sure, just ask them.

Sorry, I didn’t realize you were quoting another poster from earlier. Didn’t mean to go off on you.
I’d hope there was some kind of purported study behind this, that it was not a stereotype plucked out of thin air.
This isn’t biblically surprising though. And I’ve been there, done that myself. A clever mind can find clever ways of getting into mischief.
Aren’t these the same people who claim the S.A.T. doesn’t tell anything about a person’s intelligence?
Didn’t take it that way....; )
The problem with atheists is that they are smart enough to ask questions but are too dumb to realize that the answers they get aren’t necessarily universal truths. — Captain Compassion

One thing I haven’t figured out about the Left yet. They say they hate Christians because they are bigots and religious but seem to like the Mulims and almost act like would follow it. Well I looked up the definition of bigot. The dictionaries I found all stated that a bigot was a person who is utterly intolerant of any other diiffering creed, race, or religion.
As a Christian I am pretty intolerant of a differing creed, race, or religion that wants to cut my head off, detonate bombs in my cities, enslave me, rape women to punish them, burn fown Christian’s homes and churches, or force me to pay a tax because I don’t worship their demon god. I don’t see Christians king that to any Muslims. Yet I AM a bigot. Well if so, hell yeah I’m a bigot...But the Mulims are far and away the bigger bigots...: )

Ya ever just wanna beat the hell out of someone on general principle?

IQ predicts worldly success. That is, success in the world.
Get it? The world?

As a Christian I am pretty intolerant of a differing creed, race, or religion that wants to cut my head off, detonate bombs in my cities, enslave me, rape women to punish them, burn down my homes and churches, or force me to pay a tax because I don’t worship their demon god. I don’t see Christians doing that to any Muslims. Yet WE are the bigots. Well if so, hell yeah I’m a bigot...But the Mulims are far and away the bigger bigots...: )
You know how they say, ‘love the sinner but hate the sin’? It’s virtually impossible to separate the two in this day and age. The spread isn’t going to stop until we bare their warped azzes and stomp a few righteous mudholes, IMO.
And if God exists, then atheists are wrong on the most important question of all time.
