"smart" meaning they could write or at least understand the concept, while the others couldn't. I don't know, I wasn't there. Point is, it was a way to enforce laws - if they were all equally morons they wouldn't even understand the concept of a law, so some of them had to be smarter than the others.
Life is meant to be lived and appreciated, not worrying about walking through pearly gates or swimming through lakes of fire. The very concepts alone are archaic in and of themselves. When we die, our bodies cease - the energy that was in us goes somewhere. The only ones who know where it goes are the dead, and apparently they either don't wanna come back and tell us, or they can't.
