This chart is missing some key information, namely, the countries.
I'm sure there are more deeply religious people in Columbia than there are in Holland, and I'm also just as sure that the discrepancy in average IQ between the two countries has nothing to do with religion.

I'm looking over this list called The 50 Most Brilliant Atheists of All Time:
http://brainz.org/50-most-brilliant-atheists-all-time/ (Curiously, the site doesn't provide an equivalent list called The 50 Most Brilliant Religious People of All Time.) Two things strike me about this list:
And you know you're scraping the bottom of the barrel when you include Mick Jagger, David Gilmour, Brian Eno, Bruce Lee, and Jodie Foster on your list of the most brilliant atheists of all time. Are brilliant atheists so hard to come by that rock stars and Hollywood actors have to be included? LOL.

Number 1 on the list is Democritus. According to Wikipedia,
Quote:
Quote:
We know what Democritus's scientific views were, but what of his political beliefs? Again from Wikipedia: Quote:
What were the spiritual and cosmological views of Plato, Democritus's nemesis and a student and apostle of Socrates? Quote:
Quote:
Was Plato an egalitarian? Hardly. Quote:
I also note the striking similarities between Socrates and Jesus. Could the Socrates myth have formed the basis of the Jesus myth? If so, Christianity is more Western than some may realize.

IQ and Religion
The graph shown above relates the arithmetic mean IQ measured in various country's populations, to the fraction of each country's population that believes religion is very important. The green diamonds represent individual countries; the yellow line is a linear regression (y = mx + b), calculated by the least squares method. The United States data point is circled in red. TK Solver was used to create the graph from the data listed in the table below: Country Percent who say religion is very important (Pew survey) IQ (from Lynn & Vanhanen) Angola 80 69 Argentina 39 96 Bangladesh 88 81 Bolivia 66 85 Brazil 77 87 Bulgaria 13 93 Canada 30 97 Czech Republic 11 97 France 11 98 Germany 21 102 Ghana 84 71 Great Britain 33 100 Guatemala 80 79 Honduras 72 84 India 92 81 Indonesia 95 89 Italy 27 102 Ivory Coast 91 71 Japan 12 105 Kenya 85 72 Mali 90 68 Mexico 57 87 Nigeria 92 67 Pakistan 91 81 Peru 69 90 Philipines 88 86 Poland 36 99 Russia 14 96 Senegal 97 64 Slovakia 29 95 South Africa 87 72 South Korea 25 106 Tanzania 83 72 Turkey 65 90 United States 59 98 Uganda 85 73 Ukraine 35 96 Uzbekistan 35 87 Venezuela 61 88 Vietnam 24 96 The data shown above begs the question: what would be revealed by a survey that correlated IQ and religiosity on an individual basis? Within a given population, is religion more important to persons of high intelligence, or low intelligence? The religious attitude data is from a poll that was part of the Pew Global Attitudes Project. The survey report is available online at: http://pewglobal.org/reports/display.php?ReportID=167 The question wording used in the poll was as follows: How important is religion in your life—very important, somewhat important, not too important, or not at all important? The report available online only lists the percentage that said religion was 'very important'. The data from the report is listed below: Religion Very Important North America: U.S. 59 % Canada 30 % West Europe: Great Britain 33 % Italy 27 % Germany 21 % France 11 % East Europe: Poland 36 % Ukraine 35 % Slovakia 29 % Russia 14 % Bulgaria 13 % Czech 11 % Conflict Area: Pakistan 91 % Turkey 65 % Uzbekistan 35 % Latin America: Guatemala 80 % Brazil 77 % Honduras 72 % Peru 69 % Bolivia 66 % Venezuela 61 % Mexico 57 % Argentina 39 % Asia: Indonesia 95 % India 92 % Philipines 88 % Bangladesh 88 % Korea 25 % Vietnam 24 % Japan 12 % Africa: Senegal 97 % Nigeria 92 % Ivory Coast 91 % Mali 90 % South Africa 87 % Kenya 85 % Uganda 85 % Ghana 84 % Tanzania 83 % Angola 80 % The IQ data is from IQ and the Wealth of Nations by Richard Lynn and Tatu Vanhanen. p. 73-80, Table 6.5: National IQ based on arithmetic means calculated by Lynn and Vanhanen (2002), in parentheses PISA scores of "mathematical competence" (Prenzel, Manfred et al.

Because the IQ scores estimated by Lynn and Vanhanen have the IQ 100 of the United Kingdom as "Greenwich-IQ" , the IQ transformed from PISA may be about 3 points too high. Moreover, from 2000 to 2003 all PISA means show an increase of 3 PISA points because Turkey was included in 2003 in order to calculate the OECD mean, but not in 2000. p. 44: ”The number of geniuses produced by a population depends on the population’s mean IQ. For a population with a mean IQ of 100, an IQ of 158 is present in approximately one individual out of 30,000. In a population with a mean IQ of 115, there would be approximately one individual per 1,000 people with an IQ over 158, a thirty-fold increase, Thus, differences in the mean IQs of national populations will have large multiplier effects on the numbers of geniuses produced. These effects are likely to contribute both directly and indirectly to economic development.” http://hypnosis.home.netcom.com/iq_vs_religiosity.htm |

Atheism is as much a belief system as any other religion, and in fact makes even less sense.
The truth is that we simply don't know, so agnosticism and a clear mind are about the best one can aim for. As far as our struggle is concerned, the actual truth or otherwise of religion is utterly irrelevant.What matters is what the people we want to influence believe, not what we believe. When we have the power, then we can clear peoples minds, until we do, smile, shake hands and kiss babies till we get the power. The real question with this unrelenting attack on Christianity is who benefits? So far, only the Jews have benefitted. If people think the struggle will be won by waging an argument which has been ongoing for 2000 years, they are sadly mistaken. It will be won though secession, propaganda, relocation of taxpayers, gaining control of taxbases, and various forms of struggle, all of them extremely unpleasant. The endless attacks on Christianity, which right or wrong is the belief system of the majority of Whites and has been for over 1500 years, give the movement the appearance of a bunch of kids rebelling simply for the sake of rebelling, doing and saying things and wearing clothes designed to shock, to attract attention. WN is not about rebellion, it is ultra conservative. The Jews are the rebels It is not revolutionary, it is about returning to the way we were before Jewish rule. The Jews are the revolutionaries. It is not about installing socialism or absolute rule. The Jews want socialism and absolute rule. These attacks will not persuade millions of taxpayers to change their attitudes, relocate, and where necessary secede. Nor does it create the image of people who are the best choice for leaders and to form future White governments, of people who can be entrusted with the future and lives of the White race. We cannot have WN governments unless we are able and willing to become that government. There is no other option for us. A few simple rules when trying to recruit large numbers of people to your side: 1) don't attack them 2) don't repel them 3) don't drive them away 1) look normal 2) sound normal 3) act normal There are plenty of records of Christians separating from Jews, or seceding and forming new countries. Anyone have any records of atheists separating from Jews, or seceding and forming new countries? The folks with the highest IQs are generally found in universities, in the media and in the financial sector. How's that worked out? They are pretty much all atheists, and they also believe : 1) men and women are physically the same 2) communism is good 3) jews are innocent victims of Whites 4) all non-whites are innocent victims of Whites 5) there are no differences between races 6) homosexuality is a-ok 7) uncontrolled immigration is just fine 8) control of a nation's finances, government, culture and legal system by people from other countries is just fine These are all unsubstantiated beliefs, and not only unsubstantiated, they are disproved daily right in front of of their eyes, but they are such fanatical believers they deny the reality of their own eyes. These are the people whose ideas about religion are held up as role models to us. They're atheists with high iqs, so if they're right about atheism then I guess they must be right about all their other beliefs as well. Let's look a little closer at the atheist belief system: 1) there was nothing 2) nothing exploded into balls of fire 3) fire became stone 4) stone became water 5) water became plants 6) plants became insects and fish 7) fish became reptiles 8) reptiles became birds and mammals initially the size and shape of furry rats 9) these rats became all mammals including people 10) atheism is rational I guess that's what happens when drug addicted teenagers from the sixties become professors in the nineties. Folks need to distinguish between spirituality and religion and organised religion, and learn a little history before knocking christianity or any other religion. There's almost no connection between Christianity as practiced by Whites, and that described in the bible, and almost no connection between the New Testament and the Old. Most of the Old Testament is based upon Egyptian and Babylonian myths and legends and religions. This is known to us all, yet even though we know this, some among us still portray these as being Jewish beliefs. Jews are a society of organised sociopaths, of organised crime families, who do and say anything to get what they want. The only thing they believe in is money. Jews simply took the stories of other peoples, changed the names and the context and voila, a Sumerian myth of Gilgamesh and the flood turns into Noah and the flood. As if Jews were ever mighty warriors, more likely they tailed along at the back of Assyrian and other armies, acting as pimps, drug dealers, fences for stolen goods, and slavers, just like today. The wars actually waged by other peoples such as the Assyrians became the tales of David and Joshua and other fictional Jewish heroes. Christianity as actually practiced is based upon a merging of the various religions in the Roman empire at the time. It was devised by the ruling class to bind together their subjects through religion rather than endless wars between each other, and by the Jews to get the masses to believe that Jews are their spiritual leaders. It's notable that as religious belief declines, the birth rates do too, and in time the atheists literally simply disappear. How are the bllodlines and thought patterns of atheistic Whites with none or few children going to survive versus say the catholics and mormons with 6 or more kids? How are the atheistic Whites going to be faring through the generations compared to the muslims?
