    This post implies that to move past religion into atheism a species must evolve to gain so much intelligence that they can now answer all the unknown questions.

    Thus directly saying that atheists are a different more intelligent human species than religious people.

      You’re right that “evolves intelligence” is poorly worded, as humans have not appreciably changed in intelligence in the last 40,000 years or so. “Acquires knowledge” would be a more accurate way to put it.
