This is true of most internet discussions of religion. The fedora internet atheist crowd never sleeps.  It’s basically a bunch of 115 IQ midwits tormenting believers of average or below average intelligence who lack the verbal skills to deal with their (usually quite superficial) arguments against religion.  The paradigm case is when some well-meaning but not overly educated believer posts some anodyne and well-intentioned comment along the lines of “thank God 3 people were saved from this horrible accident,” and you get the “Well, acktually, your supposedly omnipotent God could have prevented this accident entirely, the fact he didn’t proves he doesn’t exist. QED.”  These atheist posters tend not to be familiar with the extensive intellectual history within Christianity addressing those issues, and certainly the hapless OP isn’t either as they are busy raising kids or whatever. This is no matter, most of these posters are really about trolling religious believers less verbally adept than them.  Like the Viet Cong, they fade into the jungle whenever confronted by someone who can hang intellectually, I’ve never seen on respond to tough questions critiquing atheism.  They certainly aren’t really interested in the subject matter, or they would be reading Christian apologetics from a 160 IQ guy like C.S. Lewis to encounter challenging arguments. [/quote]

Who cares if CS Lewis has an IQ of 160?  that doesn't mean he's right about everything, or has "challenging arguments" for religion that would sway atheists.  It just suggests that you're impressed by him.[/quote]
