The higher one goes in edu, the less likely to believe in god.
Same with IQ.
The highest atheism rate is among the smartest and most educated.
As I previously posted (Unanswered): The NAS/National Academy of Sciences, and UK's Royal Society, have Believer rates of 7% and 3.5% respectively. 10x-20x Less likely to believe in god than the general public.
And I recommend a fair sampling from a Google topical search:

As to believers in this string? I see no indication here of 'exceptionalism' in debate quality.
Nor that much interest in science.
The two most frequent pro-religion posters having combined Science/Env-Climate posting rates of .25% and .07% respectively.
And some of that minute amount perhaps on official business rather than interest.
Mine is just under 8%... 30x and 100x more frequent than either.
If one wants to include 'philosophy,' where I post alot of science too, the percent edge probably blunts some, but you get the idea.
I think where you post is an indication of interest/knowledge/intelligence, if definitely Not the be-all end-all of it.
