Why are there so many repressed puritanical freaks on here??

not really. why should other people's backwards ideas bother you, especially when they don't even impact your life? unless you're a homosexual. then they sure do. the scary thing is that these repressed puritanicals are in charge of our lives now, and this isn't just a gay rights issue. the government is after the breeders too, with restrictions on abortion and birth control, and the age of consent.

I haven't been offended by any of the questions.  It seems like there are a lot of people asking loaded questions, trying to stir up controversy.  But if we can't handle a little of that, then our free society is in A LOT of trouble.

Because they are perverts.  They get an erection from our answers.

Because too many people take things too personally! They think these questions or comments are being directed to themselves for real and feel the need to defend. The truth is they are actually defending themselves TO themselves. Everyone here is just a mirror for the inner conflict that occurs.

Josh, I can understand your reaction and plea. It's sort of like having a bunch of mosquitos buggin' you and you can't get away from them, and you don't have any "RAID". Religious arguments are useless. Many Christians are trying to do God's work for him, rather than just focusing on their own walk with God, and letting God do his own work. They get pushy in their zeal to get everybody "saved". Some of them mean well, but some are really not mentally or spiritually well, and they'll give RELIGIOUS answers to everthing, including NON RELIGIOUS questions. I know that you can delete your own answer to a question, but sometimes I think it would be a good idea if people asking a question could delete answers that offended them. That way the pushy ones (and other people who give offensive answers)would get their answers deleted quite often, and they would soon learn that what they were doing wasn't appreciated and wasn't doing any good. And it would filter the answers for other readers who want to read relevant answers and cast a vote etc. You might want to suggest that to Yahoo. By the way, I am a Christian too.

I think this is a great place to be. There are 2 different sides to this site. The first is very serious. People ask questions from Why is my 2 year old so bad.....to Why does my vagina have such a strong odor. These people are serious and post their questions under the proper places and are looking for real and good answers.\n\nThe second side is the more playful and fun side. This usually occurs in the polls and surveys area and such. The questions are silly sometimes....some are just there to quell people's curiosity....some are funny.....some you really have to think about.....\n\nBoth sides are great. I think answers is a great place to be. We all need tho to ignore the abusers. Try not to play into their games. They are looking for attention. I know sometimes you cant help it. Sometimes I let a good rant off at them. But then I don't for a while. \nI hope this helped you. Have a great night!

ZEALOTS are control freaks, especially religious zealots.  It is part of egomania and fear of being wrong about something so deep and profound and serious as these topics we discuss. And as one post said, there are just lots of rascals out there who are here to create chaos.  "Father,forgive them,for they know not what they do" on a deep level.  We like to say we live in a free country, but that is not true really.  \n\nWhat really amazes me is how some folks are so critical and bashing and abusive of something they know nothing about, have never read-studied or experienced personally. We all have our pre-determined time of awakening and falling asleep. We are not the Controller! Rest assured that everything happens for a reason whether we like it or not.  Perhaps these folks are here to test you and see how easy it is for you to get frustrated by them.\n\nBTW, no one gets away with anything, in the LONG RUN.  We are all eventually accountable for every faux pas!

You're a bigger person than most on this forum.  There's some mighty thin-skinned wieners running loose here.  Hopefully your thoughtful comments will make them reconsider abusing the privilege.

Nope, it's not just you.\n\nFrom what I've seen, the ppl replying that way are the ones who are "holier than thou" and like to quote scriptures as a way to back up their self-righteous behavior.\n\nOpinions are great, until someone tries to trample all over someone else's!\n\nI imagine I'm like many, in that if someone tries to shove their opinion down my throat it usually makes me stand that much more firm in my own belief.  My opinion is my truth and not that of anyone else's.

Ok, that is creepy.  I mean, it has absolutely nothing at all to do with the question.  For those of you having a hard time understanding why some of us are so fed up with the bible bashing types of Christians, this is a prime example.  For those Christians who answer questions in an honest, productive manner, I'm sorry that these people get lumped in with you.  This is a level of zealotry which scares me to no end.   And before our usual band of zealots jumps on that statement.  No, I'm not scared because I fear "the truth" or because I'm afriad you're right.  I'm scared because the mentally unsound are cutting it pretty close and I wonder what they're going to do next.\n\nTo answer your original question, give me a pint of Guiness, please!  Actually, I don't drink much, but I think I'll one when I get home.

the "why" is truly this--to rile up the other side. people can't get attention for actual skills & personality, so they choose to become the irritants of society--and it seems they all congregate here. i don't even know why i am on this stupid site, all it is anymore is a place for atheists & christians to exchange insults and for democrats and republicans to vent. what a suckfest.

Why are you trying to sow dissent here?  There are people on here trying to keep it less like a battlefield and more like a place for important questions on faith, and questions like this don't help.

I'm the type of person who truly believes in people respecting the privacy of others, and in minding their own business.\n\nI, too, have read negative comments on various cultures and religions, and some of them are very cruel.  I would  prefer to learn about the activities of others, rather than go with negative thoughts about things which I have no knowledge.\n\nWhat's making it hard for people on this site, is that they are made to feel that they have to "defend themselves" from all the negative, and bigoted questions and answers.

What an interesting question! I suppose it's because there's no trust that everyone will be on their best behavior.  I also think that it's a taboo-like guard against pedophilia.

I believe there are a lot of children here however,  the reality is we just have a bunch of immature, under educated, overly sexed, or sexually frustrated adults on Yahoo Answers.\n\nAt least use the spell check provided.
