    this man has EVOLVED beyond the intelligence of past species. He is not just educated, evolution has gained him superior intelligence!

    Yes, exactly. This is exactly what’s happened. Humans are far more intelligent than any other species on earth.

    They might look the same as every religious human but they are actually a different species!

    You’ve missed the entire point of the post. Religion is a symptom of not being intelligent enough as a species to get past simple answers to hard questions. Atheists aren’t more enlightened like you’re implying, just that atheism is the next step in human intelligence that not everyone has made or will make for a thousand years. As a whole, humans are still an incredibly young species.

      This post implies that to move past religion into atheism a species must evolve to gain so much intelligence that they can now answer all the unknown questions.

      Thus directly saying that atheists are a different more intelligent human species than religious people.
