When you ask questions concerning God, Jesus, or anything in The Holy Bible is it because you're seeking to find what is missing in your life, or because you want to believe these aspects of life are true and need guidance? Something else? Please share.

Man is destroying humanity, not the Bible, and certainly not God.

Actually most religious questions are asked to prove Christianity wrong or hypocritical. I am an atheist and seek nothing, as nothing is missing. I believe religion does not improve ones life, it is simply an addiction of the mind. I have never asked for religious guidance, and would be offended if someone offered to give it. I would like every much to have an all forgiving god and then a wonderful afterlife, but I don't believe there is one, and that is good enough for me. I enjoy pointing out the flaws in people's beliefs because it improves my self-esteem, just like any other activity in which I am able to "win".

I think it is to try to get some of you to understand that you are all wrong. The organized religions are false, the bible is mythology and organized religion is the source of hate, racism, and wars. People need to WAKE UP, and realize that there is no true ONE religion before you all destroy the planet and humanity.
Shaa.....I don't think that I blamed it on God or the bible but on the memebers of organized religion which I hope are people. For the record I do beleive in god just not the bible god.

No, it is to convince all you brainwashed people that your mythology is wrong and evil. Right now you can't even conceive of how ludicrous religion is to people who see it for the sham that it is. You should try looking at it from a different angle. Most atheists were believers at one time who started seeing the myth for what it is - a hoax used to keep people enslaved.

In ordinary usage, skepticism or scepticism (Greek: skeptomai, to look about, to consider) refers to
1. an attitude of doubt or a disposition to incredulity either in general or toward a particular object,
2. the doctrine that true knowledge or knowledge in a particular area is uncertain, or
3. the method of suspended judgment, systematic doubt, or criticism that is characteristic of skeptics (Merriam–Webster).
In philosophy, skepticism refers more specifically to any one of several propositions. These include propositions about
1. the limitations of knowledge,
2. a method of obtaining knowledge through systematic doubt and continual testing,
3. the arbitrariness, relativity, or subjectivity of moral values,
4. a method of intellectual caution and suspended judgment,
5. a lack of confidence in positive motives for human conduct or positive outcomes for human enterprises, that is, cynicism and pessimism (Keeton, 1962).
In classical philosophy, skepticism refers to the teachings and the traits of the Skeptikoi, a school of philosophers of whom it was said that they "asserted nothing but only opined" (Liddell and Scott). In this sense, philosophical skepticism, or pyrrhonism, is the philosophical position that one should avoid the postulation of final truths. Turned on itself, skepticism would deny that it is infallibly certain that skepticism is the only basic perspective.
In religion, skepticism refers to "doubt concerning basic religious principles (as immortality, providence, and revelation)" (Merriam–Webster).
The word skepticism can characterize a position on a single claim, but in scholastic circles more frequently describes a lasting mindset and an approach to accepting or rejecting new information. Individuals who proclaim to have a skeptical outlook are frequently called skeptics, often without regard to whether it is philosophical skepticism or empirical skepticism that they profess.
Religious skepticism is skepticism regarding faith-based claims. Religious skeptics may focus on the core tenets of religions, such as the existence of divine beings, or reports of earthly miracles. A religious skeptic is not necessarily an atheist or agnostic.

Matthew chapter 23 in which Jesus says no one should instruct in Gods name or accept instruction in Gods name from anyone else.
I did get a life.

I do not ask those types of questions. I was raised catholic, then I broke free and make my own choices.
