why do unbelievers ask ?

Ignorance, lack of manners.

I have seen in this forum that most unbelievers know more about the Bible than the religious "Christians". By the way, they can ask anything they want. If you don't like the question, don't answer it or answer it and be rude back like a child.

Me, a believer.

Today, I've asked questions about tattoos and the horrors of the fashion and accessories section.

I had 30 years experience as a religious person. Sorry if that isn't enough for you.

Your assumptions are wrong. I was a Christian for a long time before I pulled myself out of the B.S. I've read the bible three times already. How does that make me ignorant or mean or so god damn blasphemous?

OK, that was mean and blasphemous but not ignorant.

I have also yet to ask one question in R&S so maybe you should take your grouping of non-believers and stick it in your ignorant question.

Sometimes, we're trying to prove a point. A lot of the time we're just joking around. Most of us know exactly what we're talking about and have read the Bible more than once.

"...they have no credible knowledge about the subject matter."

Because Christians are too narrow minded and bigoted to realize that most unbelievers *were* believers at one time.

Kind of like you..

I mainly ask questions about the practice of Christianity-- if the truth about the actions of your fellow Christians bothers you, perhaps you should take that up with them.

Which part of the question "Why do people believe in god?" is insulting, ignorant, mean and blasphemous?

Some may have actual questions and do a poor job conveying their questions without bias.

Some may want believers to see how crazy SOME of their ideas are.

Some just want to get under your skin.

actually just a fyi a lot of us that don't believe in your "god" did at one time and came to our senses...i once went to church all the time, read the bible till i was blue in the face and then decided it wasnt for me and found a more natural approach at life...you know what you are when you assume right?

Why, are you threatened by knowledge that exists outside of one book?
