    I'm a competitive person, to be sure, and most consider me liberal.

      Dude, I'm way more competitive than you are. And way more liberal.

            I think political beliefs, when not indoctrinated by parents/surrounding community, as they most often are, are a function of personality type. Would a very competitive person be attracted to socialism? Of course not. There are definite personality analogues to general political persuasions.
            I am competitive. I also aknowledge that it is better to live in a caring society than in a "every man/woman for himself" world.

                It says you are not very bright.
                No it doesn't. In fact, it says that it doesn't say that. "The IQ differences, while statistically significant, are not stunning -- on the order of 6 to 11 points -- and the data should not be used to stereotype or make assumptions about people, experts say." You can't read and yet you are claiming to be smarter than me.

                  You still do not understand it.

                    Any such correlation probably isn't stronger than the correlation between liberalism and intelligence.

                      I understand that it says that there are a lot of theists who are smarter that a lot of atheists.

                          Yes. That was to stop people from giving an example of a smart theist and then claiming the article was full of crap.
