I wish I could make the fundamental categorization, but the world provides a counterexample from which the only escape is a weak cry of ‘not conservative enough to count?’.
The weaker form of ‘Conservative Christianity is a negative predictor of intelligence and rationality’ is roughly equivalent to the same thing that we’ve been agreeing about.

That doesn’t seem to be a counterexample to anything here. It seems to be a somewhat sad failure of thinking by an individual. If it is a failure that occurs frequently then it would be worth exploring just which human biases are involved in the decline.
Are you confusing an observation with a conclusion? I think the only reason I or you disagree with the conclusion is that we don’t share the same observation; everything from there on is either logically sound or high-probability.

No, not from what I can see.
What is the failure of thinking that you see, then? “Morality loves me” implies “theism is correct”.
