At Least Enough To Field The World's Geekiest Football Team

"No intelligent person would ever believe in God."

Hmmm....

So perhaps we totally blew it about the genius of:

DaVinci
Michaelangelo
Cezanne
Bach
Mozart
Beethoven
Shakespeare
Marconi (Nobel Prize Winner)
Bacon (the "Sir Francis", not the "delicious breakfast meat")
Descartes
Kierkegaard
Pascal
Kant
Locke
Copernicus
Faraday
Kepler
Newton
Beecher Stowe
Schroedinger
Bronte
Browning (both Robert and Elizabeth)
Chekhov (Anton the writer, not Pavel Andreievich the fictional Russian wunderkind who graduated Star Fleet Academy at 17...though he may believe in God as well, we have no data to support it.)
Dostoevsky
Dickens
Wald (Nobel Prize Winner)
Melville
Swift (Jonathan, though possibly Taylor as well.  I am not up on my teen music sensations.)
Tolstoy
Chopin
Penzias (Nobel Prize Winner)

Heisenberg


This is a short list of genius believers.  To be frank, to assert that no intelligent person can have faith in God is kind of embarrassing for the person who says it.  Apparently we can, and apparently we are not rarities.

So, fellow genius believers, go boldly knowing that you are not alone, and in fact some of the truly greatest minds in all of history knew your Lord as well.
