Nah, I'm pretty sure he means intelligence. 

I'm also pretty sure he meant a section of the human population that doesn't include you.

classy insult, lol but unfortunately for you it's been proven scientifically that dolphins are more intelligent.

but then again, you're not a scientist and neither am I (well not in biology), so who are we to say that dolphins / humans are smarter without any proof?

A deity such as God/Jehovah/Ala is impossible in that, a being described as "Omnipotent" (All-powerful for those who dont know) would need a power supply, for humans, we convert chemical energy stored in food into energy to move muscles and generate electrical impulses in the synapse in our brains, what makes me believe that an omnipotent being is impossible is that to supply energy for it's body/mind, it would consume more food than exists in our universe.

Intelligent life is, as i consider it, rare because of religion, or anything resembling it, to be truly intelligent as a species and civilization, all of it's members must be able to think coherently on their own, not blindly follow the words of another being, an example is the Bible itself, over 1000 pages that are interpreted through other humans, generally speaking, most humans tend to be greedy or self centered, such as the Pope, any of them through out time, they all have/had reign over the entire catholic religion and have blindly lead people to do their will, the crusades, a holy war waged in the name of "god", was actually waged for the benefit of the Pope, they wanted only one religion, and were willing to murder millions of people to make it so....i think i wandered from the original topic here, let me fix that, as you can see, man kind has been herded around by more than one "holy" text, person or symbol for thousands upon thousands of years, this makes us quite stupid as a species and a collection of civilizations, if we were to kick religion for good, and possibly end more of these silly "Holy" wars, then we could gain a higher status of intelligence.

Also, Dolphins are more intelligent than us because they dont need religion, they have no use for currency, no wars, they, if anything, are the perfect example of a utopian society.

That's scientifically speaking for a deity. But remember, we don't know if any omnipotent being lives near this planet. For all we know he could be in space in part of the 98% of space that we cant see, in dark matter or even dark energy.

religion gives hope though. wars don't only come from religion, they are also frequent from wealth, power, greed, and other human characteristics

So what if this deity does not solely exist this 3d plane of space?

But most members of any species will try to conform to commonly held teachings and beliefs in many forms. The Church says don't bang hookers, western culture conditioning says you should be allowed to do whatever you want. These patterns of conformity will never go away, you're just easily pointing out the religious ones because they conflict with western cultural thinking. Also, define "free thinking". Is it just saying don't believe in a deity or anything that can't be proven? Or is it saying that I can't share the same belief as my parents because they possibly "indoctrinated" me with them, and I'm obviously a mindless sheep so I have to rebel against that? My individualistic conditioning tells me that I should be able to go against what is defined as "free thinking" by anyone else.

Dolphins fight, and rape humans. Lol
