I get into debates with believers on facebook now and then (holdovers from my days as a churchgoer). I try to only attack their arguments, rather than attempt to get them riled up just for the heck of it. I think the person you quoted was trying to make a point of some kind, although a weak one. I've always believed in the idea that if a person wants to make a fool of themselves in a public forum, that's their prerogative.

We have lingered in the chambers of the sea | By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown | Till human voices wake us, and we drown. — T.S. Eliot
"... man always has to decide for himself in the darkness, that he must want beyond what he knows. ..." — Simone de Beauvoir
"As if that blind rage had washed me clean, rid me of hope; for the first time, in that night alive with signs and stars, I opened myself to the gentle indifference of the world. Finding it so much like myself—so like a brother, really—I felt that I had been happy and that I was happy again." — Albert Camus, "The Stranger"
