People who regularly attend church are more educated than Secularists such as yourself. You guys watch pop culture, which is completely brain-dead entertainment. It’s hilarious for you fools to pretend to be intelligent. You can barely even pull of this attempt at a high-brow insult and I’m sure you were Googling to check if you were right or not.
It’s absolutely ridiculous for a Secularist Leftist who represents mediocre, illiterate pop culture to call out the intellectual abilities of others. You need to address the log in your own eye before criticizing the splinter in mine.
If I were you, I would worry about my pornography addiction and the other immorality that goes along with being a Secularist Leftist. That is why you guys have such a high rate of depression and suicide. Without God, you have no purpose in life except to engage in cheap pleasures that ultimately leave you empty and miserable.

Ohhhh the irony of reading this as I rehearse the first violin parts of Shostakovich, Tchaikovsky and Brahms for my next concert in March is so delicious it HAS to be fattening.....
I am a grade 8 violinist, ex leader of my local youth orchestra, emeritus violinist of The National youth orchestra of Great Britain, have a real appreciation for Opera, am starting to get into art,and id wager that my bookshelves groan with more voluminous tomes than you have ever seen. Furthermore my favourite places to visit are museums (The NHM in London being a particular favourite) and as for being poorly educated as you suggest, I am progressing nicely in my quest to represent Portsmouth university on university challenge as the natural sciences specialist as I'm reading for a PhD in evolutionary biology.... Who'd have thought, a secularist being that intelligent. Its almost like, the better your education, the less likelihood that you will believe in god
Ohh wait......
Without God, you have no purpose in life except to engage in cheap pleasures that ultimately leave you empty and miserable.
Since giving up your god, I've been a lot more peaceful and fulfilling within myself.
Oh and citation needed with the rates of depression and suicide.
"People who regularly attend church are more educated than Secularists...."
Citation seriously needed. I think it's just the opposite. I also think you have your knickers in a twist because somebody saw through your intellectual pretentions.

Enjoy your paradox.

I'll be straight with you here, I ended up moving twice during my school days, from where I am now to a more rural area and then back seven years later. The vast majority of my elementary and high school education was split between a public school there and a private Catholic one here.
any subject that I didn't already know. And I had classmates that were such pinnacles of knowledge that it had to be explained to one of them what fucking language they speak in Great Britain.
Oh, you really don't want to go there. That one can be and has been tested. Surpise, surprise--magical thinking and active rejection of unfavourable scientific findings in favor of a disproven but more preferred reality don't cultivate intelligence.
People who regularly attend church probably watch pop culture too.
Double checking/fact checking is a sign of intelligence and education, silly-nilly.
You're the one with the log, honey.
Without God, we have purpose in THIS life, and don't want to leave it prematurely. It's your fundie buddies in the Rapture Ready that sound perpetually suicidal. It's a good thing the sky-bully put in the ban on suicides, or they would have offed themselves in droves.
My cheap pleasures leave me satisfied and happy. My not as cheap pleasures even more so.
I've meet really smart atheists, reallly dumb beleivers, downright stupid atheists who disservice that beleif system, extremely bright beleivers, and unfortunately, people like you. Your religion or lack there of has no bearing on your intelligence.
That's a good one, a bible sniffer calling non believers stupid.
It's absolutely ridiculous for a religious lunatic who represents the worst of humanity-greed,corruption,hate & disdain for higher learning; who consumes the absolute worst of pop culture like American Idol, Duck Dynasty, the Duggars & Honey Boo Boo to call out the intellectual abilities of others. It has been statistically proven, time & time again, that the more devout a believer is, the lower their cognitive capacities are. Perhaps it is you who should address the plank in your own eye before you even try to address the splinter in mine, or anyone else's.
If I were you, I would worry about my porn addiction, my alcoholism & my crippling debt that I largely brought on myself by continually voting for warmongers & oil industry shills, in addition to handing over my meager savings to my holier than thou hypocrite of a pastor that goes along with being a willfully ignorant, barely literate swamp dweller of Ephedra County. All of the above are why your demographic has the highest rate of divorce, domestic violence, poverty, drug/alcohol habits, teen parents, uninsured people, lowest education & the lowest life expectancy. With god, you have no purpose in life but to grovel to the voices inside your own head, which will always leave you unhappy & unfulfilled.
Confused?
