"....atheists rule the Internet"
lol.
The internet is what is finally turning the tide against religion, because Christians have no way of controlling either the content or the ability for people to access it. It will only ever get closer to impossible for the religious to successfully indoctrinate children before they will be exposed to, and have the chance to explore, reasons why their parents' religion is outdated and useless. Religion will not maintain its stranglehold over the minds of people when it has to exist in an actual free marketplace of ideas.
The internet is becoming so proliferated with contradictory "truths" that it is having the paradoxical effect of promoting fedeism.
As people become more and more distrustful and skeptical and cynical about all the 'dross' as AC Grayling calls it, why should we believe what atheists say anymore than scientologists?
Duelling URL's. ?

Citing Wikipedia as a reference source?
With 14.3 trillion pages of internet - as opposed to the relatively few trusted sources of information people previously used to have - many are reverting to trusting their own gut instinct about whether or not
what they are seeing/hearing, (second hand or third hand hearsay news) is actually true. And that is fedeism.
What does A.C. Grayling think about the internet?
...the price we pay for the internet's open democracy is the rubbish it contains...
...its content has to be audited for reliability, and a system of classification introduced...
...Without such expert monitoring, the internet will increasingly be a problem rather than a boon, and limited in educational value..
Lots of "dross" on the internet Mr Grayling? Take it up with the "owners"
