You see, the difference is our self-confidence is merely a fact of life. We don't feel the need to crow about it to everyone else. Our accomplishments, rather than being cause for PRIDE, are cause for GRATITUDE.  

When people keep trying to convince others how wonderful they are, what they are REALLY doing is trying to convince themselves.

 

Atheists like this DO worship their own intellect. They place their intellect at the top of the list of things that are important to them. They think a high IQ is what elevates them above "average" people. They think it makes them better than "average" people.

 

Christians with a high IQ know that that IQ is a gift from God, and rather than using it to make themselves feel better than others, they USE this gift from God to HELP others, as our Lord directs us to. So instead of having a chip on our shoulders, wondering why we are surrounded by "idiots", we have love and gratitude in our hearts, and wonder why we are surrounded by people less fortunate than ourselves, and we put that IQ into action to make their lives better.

 

It gives us SO much more peace and happiness than the one who keeps crying, "Look at ME!! I'm so SMART!! Why can't I CONVINCE you??!!"

Surrely you don't mean to include all Christians in what you said? I can mention one on this forum that crows about himself constantly. He has a huge amount of pride & never fails to let us know that. I have been saying for months that when this person tries to convince us how wonderful he is, it's no more than a sign of his low self esteem. He's constantly shouting "Look at ME!! I'm so SMART!! Why can't I CONVINCE you??!!"

Atheist are good people, just as some Christians are. I've never had any of them to act as though they are better than me. I have received kindness & friendship from them as I have you. You've never beaten me over the head with your belief's just as not one of them has tried to convert me to Atheism. There's good & bad people on each side.
