Why do non-believers deem in necessary to apply insults when debating Christianity?

This doesn't seem to paint the picture of one hypocrite being better than another hypocrite. Isn't it obvious that all people are hypocrites? And, isn't it obvious that Christians earnestly attempt to rise above it?

Just goes to show you the level of maturity (or complete lack there-of) of these sort of people.

Christians are not earnestly trying to rise above their hypocrisy , they live with hypocrisy . Every one is a hypocrite some way or another , even this question . = ) no offence .

And yeah , Atheists seem to like insulting all religious folks , it just happens that Christians are the majority that is why they take most hits .

Peace

I am a Christian and to be honest, a lot of Christians aren't trying to rise above anything. Their talk is just that. A lot of Christians are insane people using the Lord's name as a cover up for the insanity things they do. How can you rise above anything when you keep doing the same stupid stuff time and time again.
The church isn't the sick one Jesus came to make well since the church only want him when it is convenient to them. It's one thing to be sick, but it's another thing to be just plan insane. Only a insane person would do the same crap over and over again and think it's ok.

I know that myself, when I am angry I insult people. I can see non-believers being angry because they can't prove their point against Christianity. Just as Christians can't prove that their God exists. It is all a matter of faith. I find it ironic that most non believers are all about free speech, but try to shut down Christianity in the public forum. It is true that it is hard for anyone to escape hypocrisy.
