Say I go to a random set of forums, (or all of them, ffs!), ask a completely random question, and then log out, lurk, and watch as we ponder the nature of our reality...
It's rude. Wouldn't bother to answer them. But, I doubt the question seems random to the poster. They're obsessed.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Yeah, but what if the goal was a sort of social experiment? Ask a question that is specific enough that it seems earnest and might garner a few responses, but then as there is no follow up, see where the thread goes?
Rude, yes. Effective? Here at least slightly.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
