Hard to say for the average. It's creating an enormous intelligence inequality in the civilized world, though. A curious mind has more information to grow strong on, while a weak mind has Illusionz's posts to keep it occupied.
And let's not forget that knowledge is God's ultimate enemy. In Genesis 3:3 we learn that God is willing to lie to keep man away from knowledge: "But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die." But in Genesis 3:6 Eve did eat the fruit of that tree and did not die, but instead became self-aware, the ultimate crime of religion.
