After much reading in this forum one thing is slowly becoming clear to me. The followers of god seem to have been blessed with much poorer spelling ability than the unbelievers. Indeed, in many cases the more radical the religious view the more the written word deteriorates. This is just my observation and I know there are exceptions at both ends of the scale. But on average I think I'm right.
What this says about the nature of god I'm not sure. Perhaps (and I know as an atheist this makes me sound like an @rse) the more educated that people are the more likely they are to doubt the existence of a god. After all, before fire was understood there was a fire god, right.
Does this mean that education is bad for god and that widespread education will be the ultimate downfall of religions?
These are tenuous links to make but what the hell.

I have proof read this post several times.
Hope I didn't mis-spell anything.
