Atheists, how many hours a day do you spend talking about religion on Yahoo! Answers?

Oh usually up to an hour a day. I like coming here because the banter is amusing.

.15 hours, its proportioned over a week as i do not talk about religion everyday. Most of the time outside sources initiate the conversion (ie. those bible salesman, those weirdo dudes on bikes, and my crazy neighbor that cannot decide if he is catholic or budist)

The neighbor is the same dude that has santa claus with reindeer next to the nativity seen, looked like baby jesus was waiting for a sleigh ride this year....lol

Not sure it could be counted as measurable hours, just looking at this off and on in the background while doing other stuff. Problem?

Hadn't been here in a long time though, I would think you'd appreciate my return a bit more.

It could be one or ten... depending on what else is on offer.

"Why?"

Thank you for asking such an original question... ;)

Last year I got it up to 176 times that I answered this one…

This year I’m going to keep a count again of how many times *I* see this get asked.

Year to Date… Five :)

This sounds distinctly like the VERY OLD 'why do I come here?' question.

*drink*

****************************Apply what pertains to you ;) **********************

This gets ASKED SO OFTEN I prepared a list - what do you think of it ?

1. *drink*

2. Cos we can.

3. For teh LuLz.

4. How about ‘know thy enemy’?

5. I find religion totally fascinating…

6. And, I find the followers even more so.

7. Entertainment (mine) - Education (yours)

8. AND, cheap points are nothing to scoff at, huh?

9. Who else would answer all the questions aimed at atheists?

10. Religion permeates all of our lives whether we like it or not.

11. A-theism is NOT a religion but it IS a valid religious position.

12. The cats banned us from their section... cos we aren't cats(get it?).

13. Coming here, always makes me feel smarter-saner than I really am.

14. IF rational arguments worked on religious people there’d be no religious people.

15. No one does büllshït quite like Kent (is that how you spell it?) Hovind and his ilk.

16. I'm thinking... hang on a mo'… girlfriends cost more than hookers and wives cost more than both … sorry I was thinking about something else.

17. Cos religion is the enemy of reason – it’s not harmless, innocent, blameless, sunshine and goodness – we can NOT ignore atrocities committed daily in the name of invisible sky primates… http://kuro-kuro.org/archives/1903

18. Kid, if you and your people didn't go to such extraordinary lengths to try to convince me and my people that all that imaginary little cosmic chappie stuff was anything more than primitive superstition, you and your people would probably never hear from me and my people... just saying.

19. I come here to study the effects religious memes have on the minds they inhabit-control – it’s like a meme zoo.

20. The atheist created everything and when everything became too scary he invented religious fantasies to hold FEAR of death at bay - he was here for the beginning - he'll be here for the end ;)

21. George H.W. Bush: No, I don't know that Atheists should be considered as citizens, nor should they be considered as patriots. This is one nation under God.

22. You'd have to wonder why I get TUs with this answer - I reckon I cover it all - obviously the fact I'm not afraid of imaginary monsters in de sky scares some people ;)

23. “The obvious ignorance of TrueBelievers™ who post ‘questions’ like this is evidence enough that their god does not exist. No god could possibly be content with such ludicrous adherents.”

24. The same reason a healthy doctor hangs out in the illness section, to help the sick.

25. "George Bush says he speaks to god every day, and christians love him for it. If George Bush said he spoke to god through his hair dryer, they would think he was mad. I fail to see how the addition of a hair dryer makes it any more absurd."

Here’s one that stands alone: http://i.imgur.com/mpQA0.jpg

As an atheist I do everything correctly and just for the right amount of time. People belonging to religions, however, do everything incorrectly and at the wrong time. Don't ask me why this is true but since I believe it to be true it must be -- simple religion's logic!

Maybe five or ten minutes.

There are many uneducated people who believe in god because they have been told to. I have talked to many religious people who really did not know why they believed in god, and had never thought of not believing in god.

Many atheists provide useful information to these uneducated theists so that they can make an informed choice.

Also, many theists learn, as they write, how silly their beliefs are. We often think we are making sense until we put it in writing, and then we see how irrational we are, and what details we are missing.

About 5 hours a day. We track down Christians on the internet, and hand them over to Obama so he can torture them to death. When we're not tracking down Christians and thumbing down their answers in R&S, we kidnap babies, take them to our underground Illuminati capital, and engage in cannibalism, homosexuality, abortions, and Christian burnings. We also worship Satan and our prophets Darwin and Obama.

About the same as commoners do on the Royalty Section.

On average...bout an hour.

Why?

Just something interesting to do in my spare time.

David Myers, calm down.
