I’m not too worried about the reproduction of biological people. What I’d like to promote is the reproduction of good ideas. True, people usually indoctrinate their biological children with their own ideas, but that is not the only vector ideas use to spread themselves.

Intelligence is something like 0.85 heritable once people reach adulthood: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heritability_of_IQ Good ideas won’t solve that.
I wasn’t talking about intelligence, but about theism (or lack thereof). I doubt that belief in a particular god is 80% heritable.
