I am not an atheist, I genuinely believe that God exists and he is evil, like a toddler who fries little ants with a lens.

Asking a dumb question can actually indicate lower intelligence because they dont understand or can directly disregard false information. I am not seeing how you can relate asking question to intelligence, I dont think there is any correlation.

Yes, obviously some questions are excluded. Asking for the time is definitly not a time of intelligence. I didn't think I needed to mention that.

I dont think its the question but why someone is asking a question. If you take vaccines, someone could be questioning the COVID shot due to someone yelling on a podcast saying it will kill them vs someone being able to look at statistics and wondering if its effective.
