A Thought: On the Spread of Ignorance

All moral objection aside, to mock the beliefs of those who preach ignorance is to virtually assure that those who listen to them, knowing no better, will be too ashamed to seek out truth.

In essence, then, do we, by doing so, hinder passively the spread of reason as much as those who do so actively.

It is better to put forth truth into the world with reason, infinite kindness and patience than to waste breath in chiding those who would do otherwise.
