Having being brought up religiously as a kid I believed in God (as you do) but after being in the big bad world for several years I kinda changed my beliefs. I'm 100% certain that someone or something is looking over me but I'm more inclined to believe it's a guardian angel than a God because if there was a God, why so much suffering in the world?
As for the topic in question it's a stupid comparison if you ask me. It's a bit like saying people in Nottingham are more intelligent than people in Leeds.
