Why did I get a violation for asking the Christians a legitimate question?

because that is what they do--I get half of my questions deleted--don't feel bad

They wouldn't ask if they thought things were a-okay.  Asking doesn't validate the behavior, but liberal answers, not based on Scripture say - oh hey be who you are, no worries.  they buy into.  but it isn't like that, as i wrote on your last question.

I think your questions are valid. Unfortunately, christians don't like questioning their religion so your questions will be deleted again because they're afraid.\n\nBeing non-christian (I grew up catholic), I have to answer both those questions with "No".\n\nBut chances are that the christians here will find fault in those questions and report you.\n\nSad, isn't it? That they should have so little confidence in their own religion that they report someone that's asking valid questions.

Listen, don't be offended by any remarks on this forum, as people tend to be very sensitive about various topics which include religion and race.\n\nIt's very good of you to apologize and clarify.  I am sure those that were offended probably didn't understand what you were asking and made an assumption.  It happens a lot on this forum.

Wow! What were the odds that I would sign on and just click on your question? I never click on questions that say nice LOL. \n\nOK, so yes, this question was removed simply because I stated I was an Atheist. A huge majority of my questions are removed simply because I do not believe in God. I feel like a target. \n\nI left Yahoo Answers for a while because I was getting too many violation notices for questions that were legitimate questions. \n\nThe report button needs to disappear before Yahoo Answers takes a nose-dive to the dump. Most of the good regulars have already left because of the violations. \n\nI am sickened by the amount of questions that are removed because someone didn't agree with their beliefs. \n\nWhatever happened to respecting others opinions? \n\nPS: That question managed to stay up one full day before it was removed. \n\nThanks for keeping it on the watch list! You have no idea how happy that makes me feel to know that someone out there actually agrees with me!!

Possibly your question has been questioned to determine the direction it's taking or the intent behind the question.  Sometimes a question is questioned because the answer'er may doubt the inquisitor's motives. On the other hand it could be due to a variety options with which the answer'er could accurately supply an answer and they want to gain more information to appropriately answer said question.

I'm a Christian, and I agree with you. I think that if there is no judgement or condemnation in the answer, and if the answer is relevant to the question, there should be no problem. I have gotten rude comments from some of those who are non-religious, but only in the site. \n\nHowever, there is another side to the coin. The sad fact is that the only e-mails I have gotten that were rude and uncalled for were from other Christians, and I've also had other Christians behave rudely on the site. \n\nSeems that some people from all worldviews need to mind their manners now and then.

good point you make...i agree...keep questioning God...don't let these so called christians tell you that you will "go to hell" for asking...  God wants us to find him however we can...don't be a follower but a leader and ask ask away....

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.

Probably the woman you complained about filed a violation on you. There is a lot of pettiness on this site. I can't make sense of the community guidelines. It doesn't seem to matter if the question or answer violates guidelines or not. There seems to be a knee jerk response to anyone filing a violation. It can be for anything. Six months ago a question or answer had to be blatantly offensive. Not so anymore. People just seem to look for reasons to file abuse. It is why many people have left the site. Yahoo has gone too far to one side. I feel your frustration.

People like answers, not questions.  Answers make sense of something unstable and bring order to that instability.  If you question something, you are doing so for your own sake, but at the same time you are necessarily (though probably not intentionally) challenging someone else's sense of stability/security (since that other person would see no reason for his/her belief system to be questioned).  You're not meaning to hurt anybody else, but it's just that too many people cannot easily face a disturbance to their beliefs; they view the one who asks the question as the problem.

Hello evilushun... :)\n\nIt had to do with someone hitting the abuse button..some here just do not like others answers, so they freely hit the button.. :(\n\nI had made a statement concerning a completely different question on here, someone reported me for abuse..even though there were 3 others, with the same exact answer.. :(\n\nWhen I got the violation I had been reported saying it was not a question, nor an answer..\n\nI am so sorry that your answer was deleted.. :(\n\nIn Jesus Most Precious Name..\nWith Love..In Christ.. :)

I have often thought that there ought to be an option for us to answer without getting points for it. Apparently, the Yahoo monitors haven't been paying attention. I'd be happy to give up the points I get when I am answering a question that I feel strongly about and want to answer it just for the opportunity to make my case and get my point across.\n\nI think the people who tell you to stop asking religious questions (as long as they are sincerely intended, and not simply to cause people to stumble) are frustrated because they cannot manipulate or control you. I think they would probably disdain to receive points for answering you, so I don't think that they are necessarily hypocrites. I do think they are very boastful and rude, though.

A better answer would have simply shared the BIBLE's point of view on the matter and allowed the listener/reader to decide for himself what God's thoughts are on the matter. An offended person would be offended at the divine Author rather than at the answerer.\n\nLearn more:\nhttp://watchtower.org/e/20050715/article_02.htm

I wasn't going to answer this, but then I thought, at least non christians tend to post their comments in the right place, which is in response to  a question, whether it's what you want to hear or not, at least it's where it can be read by anyone who chooses to see it.  Unlike the many so called christians who seem to take great delight in declaring their saved status and yet at the same time spam countless mail boxes with vitriolic e-mails full of spite and hatred and arrogance.\nObviously I accept not all christians are like this, but you have a minority on here who unfortunately are ensuring there will never be tolerance, acceptance and harmony between all parties,

Ok, while the first email was bad and rude, deliberately provoking someone is just as bad. S/he doesn't want to know your religion! S/he doesn't care! Don't keep a dialog opened with him/her. It is rude to answer because they don't want to hear about your religion. It's like if you told a Christian, "I don't want to hear about Christianity" and they sent you scripture as a response.

That's hilarious!!! Sure, I think you should try it!  By the way, darling, I gave you thumbs up!! You should see the thumbs downs I get from Christians, on answers I give that are totally neutral.  You like to have a bit of fun honey, I'm sure there are some (yes even Christians) that get upset at that!  I personally think you're quite funny and realize that you are just playing.  Makes this place more interesting!
