When you see a question with a specific group?
Ok, so you see a question aimed at a specific group... i.e. Christians, Muslims, Jews, etc. Why do people who do not belong to that group find a burning need to answer the questions? No one is going to pay attention to what you write.
Sorry for not being specific. I mean answering questions in such a way as to simply bash that group... as in: Muslims: what do the 5 pillars stand for(sorry if i messed somethin' up there). but then someone says somethin like "I don't believe Islam... Islam sucks... Read my book that says I don't like Muslims." Not tryin' to offend ni1, its just an example. That's what I mean by the question: Why do people do that?

It's like yelling don't look. Everybody then turns to see what they are not suppose to look at. Must answer the question not intended for them to put their two cents in.

There are two types of people: those who know the truth and those who don't know the truth and the ones that don't know the truth like bashing the ones who do know the truth because they can't understand the truth and are afraid of it, hence we have atheists and religion. now see, i'm not going to say which ones know the truth and which ones don't, but i bet atheists got mad when they saw this, question answered.

Frankly, that stuff bugs me too. Kind of ruins the point of this thing. Maybe if they quit giving points just for answering, maybe instead 1st/2nd/3rd best answers or something like that, it might cut down on the wasted reading. If you can't contribute, find something better to do, people.

Sometimes I know the answer, so I answer them. Facts are facts; why does it matter what "group" I belong to if I know the facts to answer a question?
