<p>At a 70% skepticism rate, Jews make up the least-believing organized religion in the US. Not only that, but Judaism is often referred to as more of a race than a religion. The "Jewish race" notion is supported by the fact that, at least in the US, 'what makes a Jew' is composed more of cultural characteristics (cheapness, wealth, Jew camp, medicine/law, Ivy League, et al) than of religious ones.</p>

<p>But as I said before, the person diverting away from a societal norm is most definitely a person with some degree of reasoning. OF COURSE, people who do NOT divert away from a specific cultural norm (ie, religion) can also have reasoning skills, and very often times do. (But again, reasoning skills =/= correctness.)</p>

<p>Right, a website run by one of the most well-respected scientists in the world -- that's quite biased, indeed. Regardless, it's a survey, he's not just conjuring up statistics in his head -- if he were, he'd easily be called out on it.</p>

<p>whatever...on threads when I post stuff by world renown scientists they reject it because he's religious...but i dont care......</p>

<p>Finally something you and I agree on, Sheed. :P</p>

<p>hahaaa..cool :D</p>

<p>as you can obviously see, I've definitely stopped caring enough to argue with anyone though...people here are soooooooo close minded....</p>

<p>There is a reasonable correlation between IQ and agnosticism. Atheism is has many more highly intelligent people & highly unintelligent people than one would expect, so it averages out to about average.</p>

<p>Those are the statistics.</p>
