That depends on what you define as intellectual. Some saints who never attended college, had hardly any formal education, or were never formally educated were still very bright.

All of them! Catholicism is an intellectual faith.

okay, I'm thinking the family of Augustinian order(the ones that use the rule) tend to be intellectual/scholarly.

Orders with a strong intellectual tradition would be a place, I may falsely imagine, which don't mind good-hearted arguments in the pursuit of truth.

I had a Franciscan and a Jesuit as my personal tutors in the convent and boy, did those guys 'discuss'. ( mainly it went way over my head).
I sure did learn the opposing arguments of various theological points of view though.
