Why is it that non-believers think they're more "intelligent" than believers?
IP:
Seriously...
You're ignorant...plain and simple. Again, I'll reference my church because it's what I know. There are multi-millionaires there who are members. Doctors are represented as well as lawyers. There are people who have traveled all around the world ministering to people in need. I find it amusing that non-believers think they're sooooo smart simply because they choose to reject God and not live by faith. The truth is, they have no idea what the bible says because they've not STUDIED it for themselves. They probably grew up under religious oppression--often at the hands of relatives--and now believe those lies are what's true. The fact is, 80% of what you're TOLD growing up isn't necessarily the TRUTH. I am a believer in Jesus Christ. Can I see him physically? No. So, why do I believe in something I can not see? It's called FAITH. Faith is not just believing, faith is DOING what the word of God says as best you can KNOWING that you're pleasing God and will be rewarded as a result. Is this a perfect process? No. But, people who have either rejected God or haven't accepted him are blind. They have chosen to make everything els ein life their little "g"ods instead of the true and living God. The following things can be worshipped as "god". 1. Yourself 2. Your loved ones 3. Car 4. Money 5. House 6...ANYTHING that you give more credence to than God himself. I take issue with being called "brainwashed" when, in fact, I often have MORE formal education than the people hurling the insult. God's business is more than some slap-happy deacon shouting "amen" from a pew. NO. Churches like the one I attend are well run institutions that are about God's business. I'm proud to be a Christian. I'm proud that darn near EVERY Christian I know is either college educated, a professional of some sort, or is very well versed on the issues of life. Keep believing the nonsense if you want. But, choosing to believe that God has a higher purpose for your life is NOTHING, NOTHING to be ashamed about. Only a fool says "there is no God." The knowledge that MAN thinks he has is foolishness to God anyway. He laughs at it. Keep going. Rejecting truth doesn't make you smart. It makes you a fool.
