The data available on the subject of intelligence and religiosity seems to show that there is a negative correlation between the two (the more intelligent the person, the less likely it is to be religious).

Average intelligence predicts atheism rates across 137 nations (Lynn, Harvey, Nyborg, 2009).

IQ predicts atheism rates, monogamy rates, and liberal values (Kanazawa, 2009).

IQ is positively associated with breastfeeding rates, immunization rates, rates of mammography screening, and negatively associated with teen fertility rates and infant mortality rates (Reeve, Basalik, 2011).
