Why bother asking if you don't want to know?

I can tell when Atheists/Muslims/Non-believers in general aren't interested in the answers they ask Christians by the thumbs downs next to every answer from Christians. If you aren't interested in the answer, why are you bothering to ask?

    That goes both ways, pumpkin. Your persecution complex is very unbecoming.

    I hate when that happens too...

    They simply want to express themselves to bring them a inner peace of knowledge from those who think similar to them to hear only what they want to hear. But they are never satisfied with what they do know, because otherwise they wouldn't ask at all...

    Its understandable however that people now days are exactly what 2 Timothy 3: 1-5 mentions that attitudes of people during the last days "Self-Assuming, blasphemers, not open to any agreement, slanderers, betrayers, headstrong, puffed up with pride..."

    You know, people other than the asker can thumb up or down answers. And you're supposed to thumb down answers you think are bad or you disagree with. That's how Y!A is designed.

    And it turns out that just because someone is a Christian, that doesn't automatically make their answer good.

    Because I actually care to see how intelligent they are! In the last question I posted here (I think it was), I even said 'In analogy...' and they STILL didn't get it! Would you like me to post the link for you to see (if I didn't delete it that is)?

    Edit: Exodus 9:1- I wouldn't even offer my naval lint as trade for the argument proposed!

    I give thumbs down when people avoid the question entirely or give a scientifically ignorant answer.

    Most christians give very bad answers, that reflect their incompetence as christians - you included of course.

    Because they are trying to point out loopholes in the bible and see if christians can have an explaination to that
