#90: Internet-Internot

Fergus started an argument about whether God existed on an online forum.
Four weeks later, through well-reasoned logic
and apposite examples, he won it.
This victory made him extremely happy.
It settled the matter once and for all.
The whole world breathed a sigh of relief
that he had invested such a lot of time and emotion,
instead of doing things like talking a walk,
or phoning his nan to see how she was,
or enjoying a cup of tea,
because now the subject was closed,
and the sum of human knowledge
had made a huge net gain.
