Why Atheists are asking insulting question about Jesus and God on yahoo answers?

I think that as humans we learn by exchanging thoughts or beliefs.\nNo one can change how you think unless you are unsure of your own resolve.\n\nI honestly believe that satan uses mankind to try and achieve his purpose which is to alienate man from God.\n\nIf we are truly christian then we wont hate anyone.\nSomeone made a comment that bush had subdued the muslims.\nHow wrong you are.\nThey are very active and a very large part of religion.\nI am not one but I am aware of the large following they have. \nSo the short answer is NO people wont perform the clash of civilization by themselves but rather  with satans help they shall try and fail

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.

Mostly I ask a question to find out something I don't know the answer to. \n I hate it when people insult God, they do that mostly out of ignorance. or to get a reaction out of someone.

I'm concerned that you're mistaking criticism for "bashing." While a certain amount of over-the-top, nasty criticism (actual bashing) does happen here, it's not as ubiquitous as some people would have you believe. Also, the Internet is not exactly a place for the thin-skinned to comfortably hang out. People feel that anonymity gives them license to say things that they otherwise would not.\n\nThe fact is that there are plenty of atheists here who are more than happy to respectfully debate whatever you would like (myself included.) \n\nSo, anything you'd like to discuss, send me a message and I'd be happy to get back to you.

well.. i suppose you're referring to us atheists.. \n\nwhy be in this category? why spend so much time? because the questions and answers in this category are often tickling my curiosity, and if it hits the right spot - i'll answer.\n\nboth christian and atheist questions are very interesting to read or answer\n\nusually, it's about the need of expressing yourselves. atheisme is not about disbelief, it's about rejection of organized religion and their hidden agendas - it's about the need not to be controlled and the celebration of free will.\n\nwhich is why Q & A's from closed-minded, robotic, conceited religious fanatics always drew a great amount of interest from the atheists\n\nif there is a category called non-religion and non-spirituality, do you think the die-hard christians will not show up there? they will.

Usually people like the ones in question are of a slightly low IQ but have enough back ground to be insulting. They have a slight grasp of The Bible but are not wise enough to get its messages. Often they are people who hurt becasue they thought GOD was Santa and didnt get their way! PRAY FOR THEM-- dont get upset!

Okay, there are really a lot of smarties out there. This isn't a 'Christian' site, but I knew what you meant. We are in the Religion section and you are asking a religious question, so why do these atheist morons have to get in and disrupt and adult conversation??? Psa 14:1  To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Even though I admire your efforts, the way you have asked the question, will only make the christians feel insulted and become defensive. Only a very openminded one would read your post and seriously think about what you are saying. Good points, though.

I didn't see your other questions, but they do tend to be full of hostility.  Perhaps you should switch over to decaf...\n\nI have though seen a lot of questions that have been rather... well questionable... some reported multiple times that have not been deleted, so I think there are so many reports of abuse thay may not catch all of them.  You were just lucky enough to be chosen.\n\nAnd calling Christians followers is an insult... thats also a Yahoo no-no.  Maybe you need to read the rules so they won't kill any more of your questions.

I agree. Both ways. I mean that theists should be respectful to questions about atheism or religions other than their own and that atheists should be respectful to questions about theism. I've seen so many people on here be so disrespectful to religion or lack there of. Saying  that religion is only for people who are too stupid to handle the reality of the world or just answering a question by saying, since someone is an atheist they are going to burn in Hell. It's so disgusting, even if you do have the anonymity of the Internet that gives you no right to disrespect or trivialize this important aspect of a persons life. The disrespect goes both ways and so the advice should too.\nBy the way, I'm among the theists, if it matters to anyone.

I think you kind of answered your own questions.\nThey're taking abuse because they are Christians

I agree that it's very tiresome when people ask a reasonable, civilised question and get a rant in reponse (e.g. Noor's response to this question).\n\nBut on the other hand some people do ask questions that seem designed to wind up people of other faiths, and it's not surprising when people get wound up as a result.\n\nI think people's idea of what constitutes a challenging question and what constitutes a deliberate insult often differ.\n\nBut I think we should all try to get over this - after all this forum could be a really good place to build some real understanding among people of different faiths and no faith at all.

They are looking for affirmation.  If someone who is a non-believer posts something that they can poke holes threw it gives them self-justification in their own beliefs.  Of course, you already knew that ;)

i ponder this same question-kinda like, why are they on my catholic forum trying to shoot down anything that anyone says?? it doesnt make sense. it's almost as if they need to prove to THEMSELVES that "there is no God". i think that they are not completely certain that THEY believe this. they need as much supporting evidence that will make their claim a "fact". i think it shows nothing more than insecurity about their views. but that is just my two cents. there's no need to argue about something if you "know" you are "right", correct?\n\n\nalso, great job on striking some nerves! i see that some are still capable of being civil when this issue arises, while others just prove themselves to be babbling morons. i love it..

There are 2 kind of Questions that are related with Religious beliefs, and that incite hatred.\n\n1. Sometimes people ask questions to gain some information, or they are curious to know something, or they want to study or research. These kind of questions SHOULD BE ASKED gently and politely. Although the asker doesn't belief in the religion or faith of others, he MUST respect others' believes. These kind of questions completely are related to the purpose and function of Yahoo Q & A. These kind of questions shouldn't be removed or banned, as they are completely for informational purpose (if they have been asked gently and politely.)\n\n2. There are some questions that are asked not for the informational purpose. Instead they are asked just to INCITE VIOLENCE BY INSULTING others. If you thoroughly read the question, most of the questions usually asked at Yahoo Answers already have the answers they are asking. They are actually kind of ARTICLES or DISCUSSIONS made to create a Propaganda, Violence, Hatred, and Sometimes just to insult others' believes. These kind of question Should and Must be banned because they are not even according to the Purpose and Function of the Yahoo Answers. These kind of questions can change the Peaceful and Informational Environment of Yahoo Answers into an Arena of Abusers. \n\nWhenever a Question/Answer is reported as an Abuse related to Religious Believes, this can be the method for Yahoo Team to use that what kind of action they should take. Whether the material posted is in First or Second kind, this can be easily seen.\n\n"Freedom of Speech doesn't include that someone can Insult or Abuse others." The term has been mistakenly taken all over the world.

These idiots responding here (like Jack and JesusFreak) are already assuming that you're an immoral and "lesser" person.  They don't even know you.  \n\nThis is a prime example of why religion is a scourge on humanity, and is the greatest threat to our survival that currently exists.\n\nThis makes me absolutely sick.  I'd better take the day off today.  I can't handle much more of this.
