I Am An Atheist

So from what I've found, people who are autistic are more likely to be atheists.

I was actually diagnosed with Aspergers 3 years ago when I was 15, and at the time, I was only just beginning to question religion.

The doctor who diagnosed me stated to my parents that my IQ is above average intelligence.

Does this make sense considering that atheists also tend to rank higher in intelligence overall?
