I am a Christian and totally unashamed of the fact. I do not welcome controversy but sometimes it finds me. And, I will not shy away when it comes to defending my faith. That’s not the point of this post, however.

I wrote an article – The ABCs of Evolution.

And, oh my goodness, the atheists came out of the woodwork. Traffic for the post zoomed and with that income as well.

The atheists (they hate me. This puzzles me because I do NOT hate them. I just think they are wrong about a few things.)

Many people commented at the above post – I reckon they were atheists because of the content of the comments. They then posted a link in “we hate fundies” and “Christians are do dos” and other such sites. So much so that those people came to yell at me, too! They even blamed my mother! And she had been dead for several years BEFORE I wrote the article.

And the only thing I could think of was “KA-CHING.” I get paid by impressions so every time they showed up I was making more money. And they think Christians are stupid. Who’s laughing now?

Furthermore – every time they left a comment it changed the content of the URL of the original article causing it be updated in the Search Engines resulting in a higher ranking.

Controversy:

1. causes a response which leads to more comments

2. more comments results in a higher ranking

3. higher ranking results in more page views

4. more page views results in more income

5. more income results in more freedom to write more such posts

6. more such posts results in …..

You get the picture.
