To suggest that religious people lack critical thinking skills is pretty silly. I know plenty of professionals who practice one faith or another (and to one degree to another). Likewise, I have met people that practice religion who are bigoted and are just vile human-beings but that's probably just what you get when you look at any large group of people.
I agree it is almost as ridiculous as suggesting that religious people have better critical thinking skills.
