chosen.content: It is unfair to generalize that all religious people lack common sense. It is true that some religious people may take their beliefs to extremes, resulting in decisions or actions that go against established societal norms or common sense, while others may choose to simply blindly follow their religious texts without considering the real-world implications. However, it is equally true that many religious people possess strong analytical and critical thinking skills which enable them to make sensible decisions that are in harmony with their beliefs. Common sense and religious beliefs are not mutually exclusive.

rejected.content: It is a commonly held belief that lack of common sense is closely related to close-mindedness. Generally, the more someone follows a strict set of rules and principles, the less exposure they have to different perspectives and experiences. This lack of experience and exposure creates a lack of understanding and often results in an inability to make rational and thoughtful decisions that incorporate multiple perspectives. Additionally, some religious beliefs can lead people to make irrational decisions, simply due to their faith, resulting in decisions that lack common sense.
