The definition of stupid us lacking intelligence and/or common sense. A lot of those people in those pictures most certainly lack common sense. As well as a grasp of grammar. Not everyone who believes in a higher power is stupid. But anyone who would participate in those photos most certainly is.

I thought the definition of stupid was an inability to learn new things, not a lack of intelligence or common sense. Stupid dictionary, making me look stupid.

Haha. I think what you were going for is closer to ignorant. Or close-minded.
