That is not true. In fact, less and less people are now going to college. Test scores at all levels have fallen in math, language, science...as we lose contact with our Creator. A U.S. Supreme Court Justice in her conformation hearing could not answer what is a woman, and she is a woman. Now, that's STUPID!
You kind of proved the need and existence of God. Since you know very little what's out there in the universe, there is no way to say there is no God. In fact, if you only have 5% knowledge about the universe, that certainly makes the case for God. The existence of God isn't depended upon our knowledge of the universe at all. We simply have to have enough humility to realize our huge brains are very small when in comes to our total existence in the universe. Where did it all come from? A black hole perhaps? But where did the star that created that big bang black hole come from? And on and on. I have a lot of questions about that as should everyone. I would say this, when I was teaching geometry, I ran across a proof that proves there is no smallest number. Even if you could get back to the singularity of the big bang black hole, there is something more. So, even though some very smart people have the theory that there is a point where there is no time, I reject that. It may be negative time, but something happened before the big bang to create the energy that created the universe. Something had to act upon it to organize it as well. Note that Hawkins and others never bothered to figure that out. They just would say no time, nothing so no God. To me, that's illogical.
No it doesn't. Religious dogma is not evidence.
and yet religions in developed countries are all experiencing shrinking membershipsThat is not true. In fact, less and less people are now going to college.

Yes it is. It's historical evidence along with physical evidence that people of faith receive. I've received it. I was clear that your empirical evidence isn't going to prove the existence or non-existence of God. But, your so-called empirical evidence that there was a big bang is falling apart and still doesn't explain how the universe came into existence. So, we will call your evidence scientific dogma. How did that go with Covid?
And, test scores as well as people getting a hire education is shrinking as well. There is your scientific correlation. Not only that, we are experiencing more violence, more sex related confusion as well. All correlate to the pride cycle of our declining population. If you like more crime, more sex mutilation of children as well as adults, more drug infestations and less safety, you should cheer on the decline of religion in American.
Deriving their murderous thoughts and inspirations from the Mono's teachings - aka no Mono's, no eloquent murderous thoughts and inspirations.
Animals do have morals. Obviously you never studied animals.
What historical, scientifically verifiable evidence is there that a supreme all knowing all powerful being actually exists besides the bible or any other religious text?Yes it is. It's historical evidence along with physical evidence that people of faith receive. I've received it.

Still refusing to comprehend a single word.
The study is flawed from the beginning. Bad study. If you get a group of less IQ in the room, your outcome will be less no matter what. That’s to start with. I taught logic in the geometry classes at a Catholic high school. Top notch students who went on to be doctors, attorneys and scored high on entrance testing and IQ tests.Irrelevant
Test scores of children have nothing to do with it. Literacy and education are far more than test scores of grade school kids. And intelligence and education are not necessarily the same thing
Religions had been declining for decades now
More Religious, Less Intelligent—and Vice Versa
A new meta analysis of studies on the relationship between how intelligent you are and how religious you are finds that the more you are one the less you are to be the other. And it offers some intriguing explanations for why.
Are Religious People Really, On Average, Less Smart than Atheists?
A new study addresses whether religiousity is associated with lower intelligence. Researchers report religious people appear to be predisposed to rely more heavily on intuition when it comes to decision making, over reasoning. They conclude cognitive training could allow religious minded people...
I want you to show me the being you call god.
Keep bringing up irrelevant issues because that really helps your argument.
If God wants to show Himself to you, it will be His decision. Why must he show himself to you. Who are you to demand this from God. It is a wicked and adulterous generation who seeks or demands a sign. However, God has made it possible for you to find out if you seek for God. James Chapter one verses 5-8 is a great start. That's how you will find out your empirical evidence. Only, it won't be through man's inventions. God has nothing to prove to you. He wiped out Sodom and Gomorrah, the people of Noah's time and many more for the same demand. Those who refuse to learn from History will repeat it.
What I brought up is completely relevant. Your study is flawed, completely. What is happening with our society is a perfect example. We are going crazy doing crazy insane and unintelligently while losing faith in God. We aren't becoming more intelligent. Your big brains can't even define what a woman is. How is that using cognitive reasoning? It isn't. We go to a point in our civilization where things were really good. Money was flowing. Poverty was decreasing. There was relativity peace and people of all colors were working together, living together in peace, pretty darn close to judging others based on the content of our character. We patted ourselves on the back and became prideful to where we don't need God anymore. We got this. Now, we are at each other's throats again as we continue to think we know more than God and don't need instructions anymore. Another word for this mistake, "spiritual." It's the wrong kind of "Pride." The people have lost their cognitive reasoning capabilities. The vote for a bumbling idiot who shakes hands with ghosts. That's more intelligent?
