A more pointed response.
If you call someone an idiot who actually IS an idiot, how it that being an idiot? That is an idiot of an argument.

Is Dr. Dawkins an idiot?
These people think it is ridiculous to argue that we came from monkeys (which itself shows an idiotic understanding of evolution), and yet they believe (literally) that a snake can talk and con a naked women (e.g., Eve) who was created from the rib of a man (e.g., Adam), who himself was magically assembled from the dust of the earth, into eating a piece fruit that can magically stimulate your brain to suddenly know the difference between right and wrong. Rational, smart people don't buy shit like that. IDIOTS DO.
They believe that the sun goes around the earth and can freeze in the sky (e.g., Joshua), that an ocean can part and allow people to walk through it (e.g., the red sea), that the earth is flat (e.g., Jesus on the mountaintop seeing ALL the kingdoms of the earth), that people can suddenly turn into salt (e.g., Lott's wife), that jesus always told the truth (like when he promised to return within the lifetime of his apostles), and that the earth is only 6k years old (because da bible tell dem so). Those people are aren't merely IDIOTS, they are dumb, stupid, moronic, inane, imbecilic, retarded IDIOTS.
End of story.
