Are you bothered that dumber people are more prolific breeders than intelligent people?

Does it bother the atheists on this board that there are some statistics that speak in favor of theism and against atheism.

Namely, theists are generally dumber, there are more of them and the religiosity of the parent strongly influences the religiosity of the child. Plus, the more intelligent you are, the more educated you will likely become and the more likely you will have less children - instead of popping out 12 even though you can't feed them.

That is, atheists are, generally, the more intelligent, educated, wealthy and specialized group in society, especially a democratic society where people can use their intelligence to increase their standard of living.

We know, for example, that the poor Muslim nations are breeding far beyond that of the Xian nations and they are indoctrinating their children with strong religious values. It's one of the reasons Islam is growing faster than Xianity.

I just wonder if atheists are bothered that they will be overrun by the rabbit-like breeding of theists which creates new consumers of some specific religion, and brings new kids to these forums to ask the same old questions as if they were fantastically new?

Go ACLU go!
Yes! That is the beauty of America. ACLU and all. Jesus was a minority, the Freedom Fighters (our Founding Fathers) were a minority.

Now we can make change peacfully and according to principles that would be trampled upon by the majority. The majority are fools. Mediocre dunderheads who would drink beer and watch TV if no one ever challenged their existence.

Liberals are the best thing for society because they don't want to conserve the status quo and watch life just pass buy in a haze.

I am all for the minority speaking up. When society reflects everyone and not just the elite, we will have a better society. REmember the Dark Ages? The elite who were the only ones who could read imposed their will on the masses. The majority was oppressed by the minority but that was a different society. Democracy is a new world. The minority, science, reason, logic and beauty has a chance to be expressed. In a true democracy. America's democracy is a sham.
Shall we discuss the pros and cons of some of the actions taken by the ACLU regarding inmates (the context I brought them up)? Frankly, inmates have more rights than free people. In my mind, this is wrong. And that is just the tip of the ice burg.
It is a first class human tragedy that people of the earth who claim to believe in the message of Jesus, whom they describe as the Prince of Peace, show little of that belief in actual practice.
