Were you just going by the title of the post? Should the facts that the post has 7 upvotes (and I think had 8 before you downvoted it) and I have over 5000 karma points affect your priors?

Not as much as you might think. Being able to get LW karma isn’t a very good predictor of poetic ability, I’ve seen fairly mediocre pro-secular-humanist poetry receive a generally positive reaction on LW before, and the evidence of the title mostly screens off that stuff anyway.
