1Co 1:19-31

For it is written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and I will set aside the understanding of the perceiving ones."

Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the lawyer of this world? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

For since, in the wisdom of God, the world by wisdom did not know God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe.

For the Jews ask for a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom;
but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness.
But to them, the called-out ones, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.

Because the foolish thing of God is wiser than men, and the weak thing of God is stronger than men.
For you see your calling, brothers, that not many wise men according to the flesh are called, not many mighty, not many noble.

But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
and God has chosen the base things of the world, and things which are despised, and things which are not, in order to bring to nothing things that are;
so that no flesh should glory in His presence.

But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who of God is made to us wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption;
so that, according as it is written, "He who glories, let him glory in the Lord."

All said and explicitly at that.
Nothing more to add.

If in the UK,

Average IQ is rising at the same time that religious beliefs are falling,
Then mathematically we can say ,

IQ = 1/ Religiousity

Now consider Nigeria.

Over the past several decades , religiousity of the average Nigerian has increased about tenfold.
Therefore, mathematically,

Religiousity = 1/IQ

From this , we can infer by simple mathematical deduction that the Observed increase in religiousity would correspond to commensurate decline in IQ.
Is this a fact?
Well, if demons keep sending text messages to people, then it might be true.

Abrahamic religions have an inverse relationship with intelligence
