That's the provocative conclusion of a new review of 63 studies of
intelligence and religion that span the past century. The meta-analysis
showed that in 53 of the studies, conducted between 1928 to 2012, there
was an inverse relation between religiosity -- having religious beliefs,
or performing religious rituals -- and intelligence. That is, on
average, non-believers scored higher than religious people on
intelligence tests.
