      Try typing F-U-C . . . as a word and see what happens. Cufk gets around the autocensor and still conveys the same meaning. In addition, because of the way the brain processes letters, cufk will often be initially read as the correctly spelled word.

        And yet...your ploy failed.

              There's different types of intelligence. Religious and patriotic people tend to be more conformist. That's a type of intelligence too. It's a skill anyway and I call it a type of intelligence. Communists have a different type of intelligence because they are able to think outside the box so to speak. They don't need anyone telling them what to think.

                  My guess is that this is because atheism tends to be a choice rather than something you're born into, and the whole 'making choices' thing tends to go with intelligence.
                  "Spirit merges with matter to sanctify the universe. Matter transcends to return to spirit. The interchangeability of matter and spirit means the starlit magic of the outermost life of our universe becomes the soul-light magic of the innermost life of our self." - Dennis Kucinich, candidate for the U. S. presidency
                  "That’s the future of the Democratic Party: providing Republicans with a number of cute (but not that bright) comfort women." - Adam Yoshida, Canada's gift to the world

                        it was really unintelligent to be an atheist in the 1920s

                        so therefore in general intelligent are more sure of themselves and don't want to beleive in a god

                        the bible says something about this (something like the foolishness of God s better than the wisdom of man)

                                it should be noted that religious people tend to be poorer and therefore not exposed to as much education...
