Atheists aren't always intelligent or reasonable or rational

I totally know where you're coming from. It's so easy to create and spread absolute trash and absurdity on the internet. I can start out watching some really great videos on YouTube, but I always end up watching a sadly ignorant person spouting off the handle.

However, I have to say, it can be really difficult trying to find a sense of appreciation for the wet writhing mass of human ignorance that is the Internet, but I ultimately love it. It takes some work, but you can find some real gems hidden amongst the pebbles. Ultimately the Internet is a great conglomeration of ideas and perspectives around the world. I think most of us have a romantic view of humanity and so people are let down by the "idiocracy" found online, but I just accept that some folks don't have much to contribute and appreciate the good stuff all the more.


And thank you for the welcome, Creed! I'm obviously new, but I'm already enjoying my time here.
