I have gone WAY out of my way this morning in my questions to ask BOTH theists and atheists to tell us the basis for their beliefs.
Oh, I have an opinion, but I have attempted to formulate neutral questions. And I think I achieved that.
Now that I've been flamed by people for doing nothing more than asking unbiased questions, I'm about done with neutrality.
Has anyone else noticed that when I asked questions that concerned people explaining the basis for their beliefs, that only christians* ended up getting very hostile?
No atheist attacked me for asking them why they don't believe in god.
But the christians attacked me for asking them why they do.
If you truly have faith and confidence in your own position, why would you get hostile with someone when all they are doing is asking you to tell them about the basis of your position?????
*disclaimer: not ALL christians did this. Some seemed happy to discuss their faith.
