Maybe. Some people will act very differently online than IRL. Also, some otherwise perfectly rational theists may abandon reason to defend their faith, creating the illusion that they are less intelligent than they are. You can get what appears to be a decent picture sometimes, but not always. (e.g. I would rank apophenia as extremely intelligent and jstrodel...not so much. But for all I know, when not discussing theism, jstrodel could be fairly smart.)
