I am a lowly grunt-turned-electrical engineer and I like to think I would score better on an IQ test than the more than average theologian. Is some of that conceit? Maybe. But, I think your typical theologian is a charlatan.


And I would agree with you.

I've been in too many discussions or debates with philosophers that hinge on their manipulation of logic and sophistry to be convinced that their intelligence is that impressive.
