What should they be asking?

I don't see many "valid" questions where the person is asking for information they don't have, or for an explanation of something they don't understand.
What they "should" be doing is asking this type of question, instead of asking questions designed to insult others.
But hey, those are fun too.

They should be asking any question that relates to religion or spirituality. Some people seem to want to clog up the system with questions that have nothing to do with religion or spirituality, and other people just want to take out their frustration in an essay about religion or spirituality without asking a question.

There are no "right" or "wrong" questions. Any question can be the "right" question if it gets you thinking about something you have not previously considered or makes you look at something you thought you already knew but in a new light. A good question can lead you to a deeper understanding of what you believe in and why you believe it.
If a question doesn't do any of this for you, it may still be doing it for one of the many other people that reads it and that is a good thing, too.
Everyone should be asking whatever they personally feel needs to be asked. What may seem like a dumb question to one person may be pivotal in the life of another.

What should people be asking in religion and spirituality?
They should ask "How can I be saved?" The answer would be "Jesus Christ".
You see it isn't Christians asking most of the questions in R & S. It's God haters asking the questions because they are fighting their own battle with satan from within. One can only imagine what that battle is like that goes on inside them. It sure makes them angry and hostile toward others. You can see it in each and every question they ask, all full of anger, hostility, rage.

A lot of people who ask Q's here are not looking for information or insight, but rather, looking to challange or denegrate other's beliefs. This is wrong. They should be asking questions that improve and promote understanding between people of different faiths and beliefs.

They should be asking themselves why they believe in gods, angels, devils, scripture, heaven, hell, and all the rest of it. They should be asking themselves why they can't live with things as they are; why they have to invent a lot of fantastical stuff to make their miserable lives more bearable. They should be asking themselves why they don't have the courage to live with what little they know while opening themselves to all that they don't know. They should be asking themselves why they accept the authority of those who claim to know more than they do about things that may not even exist. They should be asking themselves why they'd rather dceive themselves than be honest.

They should be asking at least two questions.
1. How can my religious/spiritual beliefs enrich my own existance.
and
2. What, if anything, gives me the right to inflict my religious/spiritual beliefs on others.

The one's who are really interested in knowing, ask good questions.
The children of the devil are just doing his bidding!
No, we all do not worship the same god.
I worship the Lord God, the God of Abrahm, Isaac and Jacob, the Lord God of Israel.
So you see, muslims can't be worshipping the same God. Else, they would have to convert to Christianity or Judaism.

The believers should be questioning each other about why so many of them insist that they have evidence or even proof, apparently forgetting entirely about faith.
If the believers really had faith, and showed it, then only the most childish of the nonbelievers would have any critical comments, and this would be a much cleaner, more adult place.

One question that seems highly relevant, as well as practical, is:
"Why do I continually ask humans to explain the divine?"
Or, a version:
"Wouldn't it be a better idea to go to God to ask him who he is?"
