Do one more thing. Go, visit Lewis' remembrance garden. Sit awhile and ponder the subtlety of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe:It's not just for simple minded children you know. Consider Aslan.

Me thinks "ignorance is bliss" as far as atheists are concerned. P.S. Please do some research on C.S. Lewis( if ignorant of this great apologist for Christianity). By- the -way, there is a commemorative garden in his honour, at the former Holywood Arches, Tue, 13 Aug 2013 18:33:34 +0000 http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/local-national/uk/religious-people-are-less-intelligent-than-atheists-analysis-of-over-63-scientific-studies-stretching-back-over-decades-concludes-29493132.html#IDComment699124040 http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/local-national/uk/religious-people-are-less-intelligent-than-atheists-analysis-of-over-63-scientific-studies-stretching-back-over-decades-concludes-29493132.html#IDComment699058684 C.S.lewis became an atheist;He wasn't born one,he became one.Later in life,when he "wised-up", he came to know the Saviour and became a Christian.Did that make him "less intelligent?"Remember this, atheists, if you start with a flawed premise,you will, inevitably, end up with a false conclusion. God cannot be measured by finite minds,nor can His church.
