The study is bullcrap on its face since intelligence by itself won't make you faith free.  AND I know plenty of quite intelligent faithful too...

 

As my yoga guru (Behram Yogi-Raj - a rather serious proponent of yoga for sure) maintained: "Stupid People Don't Need Yoga".

 

What he was drivng at was those with lesser IQ DON'T EVEN BOTHER considering the potentialities of a unknown future.  

 

They don't worry...so don't need yoga!

 

A wholely holey holy explanation (copyright FRISH) works just fine, even keeps the questions from coming up!

 

Faith is belief without reason, hence atheists and diests agree:

 

"There's No Reason For God" (Copyright FRISH) 

 

Consider: how stupid will we look after we die and find they were right after all?!?!?

JOKE! 

 

So, here's a question:

I'm wondering how my ex-spouse and my prior (coincident (sorry, again, dear)) and subsequent sex partners will get along with me in heaven...and how old will we be there?

 

See what I mean...there's something one can ONLY worry about, and do yoga to cure!

 

The actual takeaway of the article: "Brains are a curse!"
