People from all walks of life can be mislead, regardless of their intelligence, level of education, sanity, or lack thereof. Crass, vulgar, and belligerent people participate on all internet forums. This one is no exception. Atheists do not have a monopoly on truth or rationality, even compared to believers.
I never said all theists are stupid. I just said that atheism is bound to attract people of a more inquisitive nature than religion is. This april fools is a prime example of the gullibility of some atheists (me included).
