Question for Christians - when you ask a Question for Christians do you ignore non Christian responses?

Question

Disclaimer: I'm an Agnostic, and I pretty much only read the two or three Christian friends I have, and all the other responses from Christians I usually skip over, so I wouldn't blame anyone else for doing the same thing.

Answer 1

I'll have to try that. I've never specifically asked a question to Christians, only once it seemed that way. My final answer is: I read all responses to my questions. That's just me.

Answer 2

Then you don't want to have anything challenge your pre-conceived notions about everything? Though I don't ask questions here, I am always most interested in reading what those with whom I disagree have to say. I like to learn, and incorporating various thoughts and opinions from all over the spectrum help me to confirm or deny some of my most basic beliefs. This seems pretty narrow-minded, if you're serious about this line of thinking... To each his ownself, for sure, but there is a lot of entertainment to be had out there, even the crackpots and idiots get off some nice zingers sometimes... If you don't want to learn anything, there is some entertainment value to be had from reading all the answers.

But then again, if you know it all, there may not be much that you can glean from other sources...

Answer 3

To date I have never asked a question, only answered.

But I do read through the other answers that people give to questions I answer. (Well, at least the ones under 600 paragraphs in length). Sometimes the first line is enough to know where they are going. Others get read all the way through, whether I agree with them or not. Always interesting to see what they say. Sometimes helps in answering future questions. Sometimes had read some "good answers" that I have repeated in the future.

So put me in the "read most" catagory.

Answer 4

Yes, I do skip over the sermon-like answers.
I also ignore narrow minded answers that spread seeds of negativity in others' lives. If you are truly an optimist, you can skip the 'cloudy forecast'.

Don't worry Blue Angel, I did read yours....it's okay. As she pats the little dear on the head.

Answer 5

how can you tell the response is from a Christian unless you actually read it? does their avatar glow or something? but in response to your question... i read all answers, you cannot limit how God responds, i feel that sometimes God has answered my prayers through non-christian friends as well. it doesn't pay to be narrow-minded as both some christians and agnostics are.

Answer 6

No, if I were to ask a question only to Christians, I would expect that others will reply as well. Their answers may not be what I am looking for, but I read them anyway.

Answer 7

I read them all. Why bother asking a question if your going to pick and choose what to read? My point in asking a question is to get different opinions on a subject or help with a problem I am having. :) BTW, Are you saying you always skip over me?

Answer 8

I typically skip over the ones that are hateful or just plain stupid. But, all in all, I read them all.
Question for you: Why post your question here if you're not gonna take in info from everyone except those that you know? Why not just give them a call or have them over or something?

Answer 9

I try to avoid non Christian responses. But then again if it's an Atheist response I automatticly skip it.

Answer 10

I typically only ask questions when I'm really looking for an answer, so I typically read all the answers I get. But I know alot of people just post questions here to try to piss people off (no names mentioned...)
