Our greatest minds were peoplw of faith Plus beliving doesnt make one dumb
I didn't say it made him dumb, I implied that faith doesn't flow from logic. Plus it's a little problematic to say that our great minds were people of faith when, for much of our history, not being a person of faith could mean death. But it's true, there were folks like Thomas Aquinas who were brilliant and more than average religious.
You could life and not be xealos or pious aka faithful. The past wasnt as xealot as you think it was
Edit: i would have poikted to Leibnitz and Hum as brilliant people, especially Leibnitz, who were faithful
Galileo might not have agreed with you.
Also the word is zealous.
