Why is it that in many of these religious questions, I have seen a lot of very respectful, but not pro-religious answers (as in generally not pro-christian), yet many religious people (as a general statement) seem to be giving thumbs down because even though the answer is completely respectful, and very plausible it still deserves an insult?
I am just not understanding this, I know there are definite reasons to give a thumbs down to something, but isn't the best way to fully understand your own religion, and be steadfast and strong in your faith is to have proper and accurate knowledge of other religions and philosophies so as to better debate/defend your own stance? Shouldn't religious people be thanking these well versed, well informed scientific people who are stating proven facts, rather than insulting them and telling them they are wrong? It is just a question, but I would think the more information you have the better. Or am I wrong in thinking this? Don't get defensive please.
