‘Geek’ brings to mind a long list of traits- Glasses, obsession with science, a high IQ. Recently, however, a new trait has come to light to add to the long, esteemed list: Atheism. Despite being widely known, there has been very little in the way of explanation proposed for this phenomena.

I definitely enjoyed the article, but its pure speculation. I've read someplace that the higher the IQ, the less someone believes in the idea of God. The idea of God is just one of those things that has been passed down generations to explain the unexplainable.

As a little kid I believed in God and went to Sunday school and listened to the bs. As I grew older, I realized religion is man's best invention.
