Default Re: Sklansky concedes religious debate o rly?

[ QUOTE ]
I seriously did not mean to level Mr. Sklansky, whatever that means, but in my stidies I often come across individuals who are remarkably loud with their theories and then when empirical evidence emerges which contradicts their hypotheses they remain painfully quiet.

Though not conclusive, it is well known that there is empirical evidence that religiosity is negatively correlated to IQ.

I assume Prof. Haber possesses sufficient IQ to know that nobody who accepts this correlation (including Mr. Sklansky) claims that there doesn't exist very intelligent religious individuals, including some who can win a big donkament.

(Not that it requires great intelligence to win a donkament, as I have shown.)
