Am I alone in thinking there are far too many  preachy Christians on this site?

No, your not.  This is suppose to be a forum of learning and understanding.  It would be a great tool to learn and understand belief systems of those that don't believe as you do.  But some, a very vocal minority, use to to try to convert those that don't believe as they do, telling them they are wrong and going to hell if they don't.  It surprises me how many narrow minded people are still left in the world.  Sites like this have a wonderful opportunity to promote understanding and learning but there are those that see it as 'their way or no way' and refuse to try to understand those that don't believe as they do or why they believe that way.  Wouldn't understanding and tolerance be a lot better for the world than attempting to convert all those that don't believe as they do?  Look around the world at what is happening in the name of religion right now, couldn't things be improved if there was more understanding and acceptance for different belief systems?  It's called an open mind and not judging but learning.  Sadly, there are those that will never do that and they wrap that all up in the name of religion.  Is it any wonder so many conflicts around the world are caused in the name of religion?  I doubt that is what 'God' had in mind for his followers...

This website is not serious. At least not in the way you think. This is an elaborate parody or satire about Christianity. The person(s) responsible for the site must have strong feelings against Christianity in specific or religion in general to put out this kind of effort to ridicule people of faith. The humor is subtle on the pages I looked at and I would assume that it is throughout. Their intention is to make people believe that they really ARE Christians and to stir up anti-Christian sentiment. Yes, there are some Christians who DO believe in a lot of what is said on this site, but this site is not legitimate. Many Christians are ignorant, hateful, and frankly, stupid, but not all or even most of them. This is not the first site I have seen like this. I can say all this confidently because I have been a Christian for 23 years and I can tell the difference between a wacko Christian and a well constructed mockery.\n\nOkay, I looked at the site some more and some of the satire is not subtle at all! This is a joke people. Whoever did this site is not a Christian.

There's nothing wrong with this site,its pretty informative.But if ones mind is made up words cant change them..If the Lord himself had said it then some people would call him a racists.People only believe what they want to believe ,they don't care about facts or figures they are thinking only with their emotions.

It is hardly surprising that jokes at the expense of Christians will occur when the more evangelical and fundamentalist of their kind are constantly using this site to make propaganda to argue against Darwinism and to promote uncritical belief in the Bible as being literally true, and do so, not just in the Religion and Spirituality category but in many other categories as well, such that it is hard to get away from them.\n\nUnsurprisingly, this annoys people who come here to debate ideas not get propaganda shoved down their throat. They feel harassed, and indeed, they are right. They are being harassed. Unsurprisingly, there is then a backlash,\n\nPerhaps the question could have been more precise as to which Christians were felt to be less than useful to other users of this site, and why, but the humour in the question is self-evident to all but the humourless.\n\nThis is not however preaching hate or intolerance agaunst a religious group, like the questioner recently who asked if Muslims should be killed at birth. That question was hastily removed by the Yahoo Answers team.\n\nThis is satire, sending people up not blowing people up, and it was to protect just this sort of material that Rowan Atkinson came out so strongly against the Race and Religious Hatred Bill and in favour of Artistic Freedom of Expression.

I'm a Christian, and I agree.  Its all nonsense...and a way for someone to make a buck off of the Bible

I don't think they were offended...i think some were just ignorant to the lord. And those who spoke the work in your comments and still judged you are not true believers either. You know what the funny thing is....people who see that someone is spreading their believe  in the lord love to critisize becuase they are misserable and think it is fun to toy with others ...they have nothing better to do with their lives..let them though because we know better! may god have mercy one those poor souls! And find a way into their hearts becuase it's sad really even those who don't beleive he still loves them the same as the ones who do and what thanks does he get...

Yes I know it's so revolting!!\nAnd did you see what some of the people here are writing? \n"How many can this planet support?" ( As if that's an excuse for murder!)\n" Who cares?" ( Who cares? God for one! He's the one who give the beautiful babies to you!) \n"That's not true" ( Unfortunately it is!!)\n\nIt's all so very, very revoltingly sick!!

You kidding me!?!  I used to be a gun-totin, gay-bashin, prayer-sayin, people-judgin MINISTER!\n\nBut some of the people here are just way too preachy for me.  Now I'm a moon-worshiper...they leave everybody alone.

I agree with you.  Sometimes it seems to me this site is either full of mostly 6-8 yr olds or a bunch of retarded morons.\n\nAfter seeing a few dozen querstions like "What is sex?" I am about ready to twist my head off and heave it against the wall.

Amen Christy! You've got a fire about you in this post, you sure you're not meant to be a preacher? Joking.\nI agree 100%. Forums like this always seem to bring out the bottom feeders. Then we end up with people screaming in frustration, "all you Christians are a bunch of jerks!" or "all you atheists are stupid!"\nThe BIG problem on this site is when a troll comes on here posting something controversial, people reward them by arguing back. Then you ask a serious question, and you get 5 or 6 answers. \nIf we really want the fighting to stop, both sides need to speak up and condemn those who are rude. Nonbelievers need to start speaking against rude atheists who call Christians names. Christians need to start rebuking uneducated Christians who give bad answers.\nAnd please, for the love of God, if you don't have an answer for an honest question, simply don't reply to it. Enough with the snide remarks that don't give the asker any help.

I seem to find by going by this site its everyone who is religious or american.... which doesnt really seem true to my normal life where i know people who are religious where i am not but we get on and they dont preach to me or give me the thumbs down for having a different opinion..... As for the Americans, i think they just dont get the ironic sence of humour on here... looks like i will get loads of thumbs down for having an opinion again.

I think it is horrible that people of any faith would post such nasty comments. I am a believer in God, but do not call myself a Christian. I have had bad experiences with them like yours. These people are not being very good Christians as they are going against a lot of what the bible teaches, ie tolerance and not judging others. You should ignore these people and keep asking questions. It is how we learn and understand.

People get enthusiastic about talking about their faith, or talking about an issue that seems to involve their set of beliefs. It just so happens God is a hot topic, espeically on these boards. Part of the problem may be (and i have to admit i dont know what your questions were) no feels they know enough to answer your questions. Much like most people on here id imagine, i try and answer questions that i think i can have some benefit to the asker. If your questions were either too specific or about an area no one felt comfortable answering (other than the wiki paste) then that might be why.

siamsalem007: are you serious or are just that dumb? it is by leaps and bound easier to follow the herd so you don't have to formulate original thoughts or have an individual opinion.  i don't mean to bash or berate, but come on! jeewhiz! <---hehe that rhymes with jesus. HA!\n\nand for all of you christians supposedly being supportive and caring, you sure are a bunch of ravenous close-minded religion-mongers. what makes you think you deserve eternal paradise? because some book written by the hands and fingers of men tells you so? at the very LEAST, practice what you freaking preach! so few of you do.

I'm a Christian, but many times I think if I wasn't I'd be so turned off by how some other Christians behave/act/talk.  In the name of Christ, they do some really outrageous stuff or twist the scriptures to fit their own agenda. Or act SO radically ridiculous  that it is a total turnoff to those who maybe are seeking. It's only a small handful of people, mind you, but those few can really spoil it for those that are genuinely trying to walk day to day and show God's love in every circumstance.  I consider myself a radical Christian, but mellowed by age, and a general sense of not wanting to turn off and offend every person I meet!

Unfortunately so..\n\n.Perhaps it's a need to "be the one" who gets it right?\n\n Perhaps they're trying to get Christians to work the "Great Commission" harder?\n\n Perhaps they feel "scare tactics" will bring more to Christ?\n\n All of the Above are counter-productive, because then it paints a "charicature" of Christianity...
