Atheists can you not honestly not answer a question without mockery?
Have some decency and respect for other human beings. I don't care what your beliefs are, none of our mothers taught us to be rude and ridicule people to amuse our selves. Didn't our mothers teach us to treat others with respect and kindness, even if we didn't receive it from them? So Atheists why can you not be a civil human being and answer a question without being rude or mocking someone?
@ quit thy I would never say such a hurtful thing to someone. I think you have me confused with someone else. I hope that not even one would perish

These people pride themselves on their aggression and they don't seem to understand why it undermines their value as human beings so they continuously do it.

I try but, when I feel the question is presented in a certain way I will fire back. If we can only sling mud we accomplish nothing else. There are many good thoughts thrown out on this board as well as the negative. Most question I don't like I don't bother reading. I skim to find the ones that interest me and enjoy reading the answers and occasionally I put my 2 cents worth in the pot.

A little over generalising and sexist on your part if the truth be told. I read both the atheist and christian comments, and often, it is comments from alleged Christians that are disrespectful and uncivil. My mother died when I was very young, and I was raised by my father. He taught me to be respectful and to appreciate all living things. In fact, two of the most important things was to be abe to think for myself and to critical evaluate all information in order to have a better understanding of world. Now, if I can be over-generalising, I would say, many of these so called christians do not think for themselves, do not understand the bible but are only regurgitating what they have been forced all their childhood to accept without critical understanding.

....Just by opening this question you have become the aggressor. There are constant battles on here between religious people and not-so-religious people, each different side always asking the other why they are always so rude when the truth is BOTH SIDES ARE AS BAD AS THE OTHER.
Atheists bait the bible-thumpers because they know they'll get a reaction. Bible-thumpers continually and self-righteously threaten atheists with promises of fiery hell unless they conform to their belief system.
The whole section has become ridiculous. STOP baiting each other.

Yes.
See how easy that was?
Now, given the rest of your little diatribe is a sermon, you can go pound sand.
I respect all sane adults. Since theists are not sane, I don't respect them any more than I do the plague.

Isn't it mockery to suggest that an entire class of people engages in mockery without exception?
I answer questions without mocking quite frequently. However, *your* questions don't strike me as likely candidates for mockery-less answers.

Generally the questions are so dumb they deserve to be mocked. Or they are questions designed to mock atheism.
Try posing more rational questions which have a chance of you requiring a rational answer.

It's a lot easier to ask that question, when you're not condemning people into eternal suffering. Mr. Hypocrite

What the heck am I supposed to do other than mock people that believe the earth is 6,000 years old and that snakes talk?
We have a fossil record that PROVES the planet is billions of years old, and snakes don't even have vocal chords!

Nope. Not by your standards. The religious don't too kindly to scrutiny. They have made it so that any and all criticism is, by definition, profane and blasphemous. Challenge their convictions, and they feign offense.
- polaxedLv 68 years ago
yes we did. and you seem a bit paranoid that you "beliefs" can be mocked easily, so what does that tell you about your beliefs?
