Are religious people really less smart, on average, than atheists? [Spirituality & Religion]
It’s a question with some urgency, the proportion of people with a religious belief is growing: by 2050, if current trends continue, people who say they are not religious will make up only 13 per cent of the global population. Based on the low-IQ-religiosity link, it could be argued that humanity is on course to become collectively less smart. Its said that atheists surpass religious individuals in terms of reasoning but not working-memory performance. The religiosity effect is robust across🤔

Smartness is way different from reasoning skills .. Fanaticism won't last ling.. for even an atheist fanatic will go through hardship if he does not have reasoning power. So what can be expected is an imtellectual war and there would be a lot of turmoil in the religion front.
I predict that all of the ancient religions would perish givung way to newer non-theistic religions..
