The Internet may possibly be evil

We (western "civilization") have come to a sorry pass indeed when some people think phrases of this ilk constitute persuasive argument:

a) Shut up.
b) You're stupid.
c) F*** off.
d) Variations thereof.

Go to any website, any combox, and you will see this sort of thing. Anonymity makes it infinitely worse. It rather makes one despair for the state of the mind and soul of post-modern man. And it very nearly almost wants to make one give up blogging and/or writing, and instead spend time on activities that are infinitely more productive and God-glorifying, like reading a story to your child or perfecting the art of the pie crust.
