half of the population is, by definition, below average intelligence

I never really thought about it that way. But now that you bring it up, it is truly scary.

I wonder what the median IQ of the population is? Maybe I don't want to know.

It's estimated here to be 98.
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

I will only say that I don't think my beliefs have any effect on my IQ.

I wonder if anyone believes in a similar correlation exists between IQ and (let's just pick one) height.

Aw, hell! Let's pick two! What about weight?

I think what the chart data show is the inverse of this statement.  IQ tends to affect beliefs.
