Why not answer a question rather than give some answer about something that totally doesn't relate to the question?
For example if someone asks a question about evolution being taught in public schools, why not give an intelligent response instead of carrying on about how the government should tax religious organizations.?
My only guess is that if people can't think of an intelligent answer for the question and are frustrated by it that they spew out some rhetoric that they have rehearsed over and over again.
My guess is also that those same people would criticize religious people for not thinking on their own, yet perhaps the religious person asked an orginal thought provoking question only to be answered with mindless rhetoric.
I guess the logic behind such responses is if you cannot come up with anything to say attack the person or change the subject, as both seem to happen in these situations.
What do you think?(O & attacking the person asking the ??is not a response)
