Why do most people still cling to religious beliefs when presented with logic and evidence – conclusive evidence – against it?
Low intelligence is the main cause of religiosity. After all, thinking is much harder than believing – hence the great preponderance of believers over thinkers in all ages and cultures. Especially in the Philippines – the only Christian country in Asia – mostly populated by believers and not by thinkers. In fact the first and last real thinker we had in this God-forsaken country was Jose Rizal. He was executed in 1896 by the Catholic church for thinking too much. Ever since then, we have become a nation of stupid believers rather than intelligent thinkers.
