It seems to me that rep count does not reflect thoughtfulness so much as combination of comic cleverness, prolific posting, and more than a little group-think. Theists simply do not get rep points as similarly prolific atheists who garner between 60 to 90 points.
Here’s how some of the more prominent theists rate on AF:
RoadRunner79 – 3 points
SteveII – 8
Ignorant – 14
Alpha male – 24
Godschild – 25
MysticKnight – 36
Drich – 45
CatholicLady – 77
I have my own thoughts on why each have the rep points they do. Personally, I feel that the first four are by far underrated based on the intellectual quality of their posts. GodsChild is also underrated, IMO, simply for being as prolific and tenacious as he is. MysticKnight's low rep count surprised me given how much he elevates the conversation and brings in a much needed Muslim perspective to the forum. Drich is about where I am for what that is worth. If that is any measure of grudging respect by atheist members then I guess I 'm in good company. CL breaks the curve and if anything serves as the exception that proves the rule. She's too nice to challenge the more strident among AF, plays mafia alot, and makes scatological jokes.
