Theists are not intelligent?

Question

Jews represent 1/5th of 1% of the worlds population ... but

28% of Nobel prize winners in medicine, 54% of world chess champions, 37% of top 100 worlds psychologists and psychiatrists, 40% of Nobel Prize winners in Economics

...are Jewish who are Abrahamic Theists.

How can that disproprtionate amount of people have such a positive intellectual impact on humanity ?

Lets end this nonsense of Atheists having intellectual dominion.

Atheist response welcome......

Answer 1

Gotta love them Jews.

Answer 2

Did your survey tell you what percentage of the world's wealth has been amassed by Jews?  You know, that may have a bit of an impact on why they can afford to buy the highest education that man can buy.  Kinda hard to win a Novel Prize when you're say, a Palestinian living in the Gaza strip, living in subhuman conditions, starving to death, under seige every minute of your life and supporting yourself and your family by pumping sewage from public toilets for a quarter a day

IMHO

Answer 3

A lot of Jews aren't actually theists. Einstein, for instance.

Answer 4

Get real!

It's a fix anyway!

mmmmm!  Is that coffee I smell?

Answer 5

But how many Superbowls have Jews won?  What about presidents?  Or Astronauts?  I think it all comes down to what the cultural emphasis is in.

Answer 6

There are many people who consider themselves Jewish, but who are really agnostic or atheistic.

They are culturally Jewish, and identify themselves as Jewish.

Answer 7

Agreed and thank you for this.

Answer 8

wow.. those are fascinated statistics.. I'm going to go visit some jewish relatives this weekend, I'll have to tell them

Answer 9

They create more opportunities to excel, for themselves by supporting each other in their chosen lifestyles.  They are often wealthy, again for the same reason.  There is no mystery to it.

Answer 10

Is this a Jewish Question?

Answer 11

i also agree.

Real intelligence isn't only with mundane intelligence.  It's with the spiritual one.

:)

Answer 12

Agreed. I don't like generalizations in any form.

Answer 13

Jadhu : huh ? spiritual ? haha ...get an education

it's the person not the religion .

Albert Einstein wasn't a jew....well he was raised Jew .

Answer 14

Maybe they're good at that stuff because they don't waste thoughts on theology?

Answer 15

So I guess we are going under the presumption that qualifications = smarts?

Following dumb rules that have no sense in our time will never be intelligent. And the Jewish? The religion that actually cuts off a small piece of their children ALTHOUGH they are meant to be made in God's image? Does that mean God also needs a bit of an improvement? Why would God gives us something to snip it makes no sense
