Blah blah blah. What a long-winded article! You can make statistics say anything by changing criteria. They seem to equate "college degree" with intelligence? There are so many variables this seems moot.

There are some inaccurate claims in the article, and they offer no evidence for any of their claims.

I DO agree that making fun of people who aren't bright is cruel, meanspirited and unChristian.

BUT - sometimes immoral behavior is deemed "stupid" in common parlance (say going 200mph in a school zone) - and I don't have any issue with folks making fun of that ; )
