What I find most amusing is how many of his disciples on here have been sticking their chests out and proclaiming the superiority of their science and reason to christianity. Really where is your science and reason? Sam Harris used none in developing his graph and you all blindly believed him without an ounce of critical thinking.
When I first seen this thread I rolled my eyes: Another thread taking pot shots at christianity. You would think that you guys would get tired of regurgitating the same old arguments and go off and live your godless lives. But obviously your faith in a godless universe needs to constantly be reinforced by belittling and in your weak minds destroying the pillars of christian orthodoxy.
Perhaps I'm being a little too hard on you guys. I mean I do have some advantages; I actually have read the bible and studied it from time to time. Also, I do have some interest in religious history. What do you guys got? An ardent faith in a godless universe? Blind devotion to your religious leaders such as Sam Harris or Dawkins?"

Yes and my post there stands as the only one in this entire thread who actually looked as the substance of the graph that this thread was suppose to be about. You left out the rest of my post where I expose the lack of scholarship behind the graph and pondered the motivation for putting such a thing together. It wasn't a desire for truth.
Both Harris' intelligence had been put on the table and the mantra of "science and reason" before I posted. I merely opined on the first and refuted the second.
