If we took all the religious people (believers) on Yahoo Answers and put them in a big hall together, and put all the non-believers in another hall far away, what do think would happen?

I think that in the hall with non-believers there would be great fun, interesting conversations about science, the universe, how silly religious people are, and generally speaking, I think the non-believers would have a big party and makes lots of new friends amongst each other.

On the other hand, sadly to say, I think the police would called in no time at all control the hall full of believers. I suspect with all the differing religious viewpoints, and the hatred religious people seem to have for one and other, that a mini Holy War would break out.

What do you think would happen in the religious hall?

We'd probably kill each other, because we would be so intent on convincing each one that we are right and that they are wrong. More blood is spilled over religion than oil!

ahahaha,

As long as you were able to keep it like that,
peace would reign all over the world.
I don't believe they would stay in their rooms
for long. Nice try though, thanks.

I'm not sure what would happen overall, but I'd be in a corner of the believers' hall chatting with other tolerant people and sadly watching the show.

The non-belivers will have fun times and party. thats 4 sho. The belivers would either not talk to people of a different religous. Or read a bible or watever the religous calls it or get into an agurment bout wats the truth. If they do end up talking it wont be about religous things which I strongly doubt they would talk.

You are mistaken as to what hall the police would go to!
In the hall with all the believers you would find the biggest prayer meeting ever! Believers would be praying for all the unbelievers!

Las Vegas is so narrowly educated it is nearly painfully amusing as i've encountered LV in another thread and was inclined to shake my head. Can you say, "child of mainstream fox news?"

now to answer the question

I believe many religious groups would either be totally silent, talk amongst themselves (segregate themselves) or begin arguing their theologies (or a mix of all of those and a few more options i didn't include)

Need not to put them in a hall. It's already happening in our macroscopic world. They talk peace but their actions meant to conceal the hands that provoke war. The atheist develop the war technology and the believers kill one another.

I think there would be some heated debate, but you would not have to call the police in. I'm religious, but I'm not a Christian, so the Christians would probably try to debate with me or try to convert me, and I would just try to engage them in peaceful debate. I think I could get along with people in either hall.

Unfortunately, every religion has it's radicals, even atheists. Atheists spew hate on this site all the time. However, since the unbelievers believe in nothing as far as it concerns God, you'd eventually get around to fighting about something.

Nowadays, believers and non-believers are only temporary labels. Yes, they are constantly disguising, changing, repenting. There are saints, criminals and innocent people everywhere; and it is almost impossible for any organizations to justly separate and eliminate all the criminals. And even if that could be done today, the world would produce more of them tomorrow!
If we keep on judging other people with our limited knowledge, disagreement, conflict, enmity will continue to darken this world.
The way out, the only way out is ...the way of God, the way of divine judgement.
Each individual should turn to God, and judge himself based on God's criteria about a true human being and repent himself. If the world is populated with more true human beings, we will have peace, prosperity and progress for this generation and generations to come.
As for the criteria of a true human being, this is one of Baha'u'llah's counsels:

"…man should know his own self, and know those things which lead to loftiness or to baseness, to shame or to honor, to affluence or to poverty. After man has realized his own being and become mature, then for him wealth is needed. If this wealth is acquired through a craft and profession, it is approvable and worthy of praise to men of wisdom, especially to those servants who arise to train the world and beautify the souls of nations.
-Baha'u'llah, Baha'i World Faith, p. 167-"

Praying that Baha'u'llah's counsels and powerful guidance will lead more people among us back to our true and noble nature.

So why are you hanging out with religious people? Maybe you went down the wrong hall?
:))
