As an objective viewer of this Y!A section, I see a lot of atheism-bashing, christian-bashing and muslim-bashing. I belong to neither of those groups, that's why I call myself objective in that. I'm probably the closest to the atheists, but that's besides the point.
Muslims seems to me the people that are bashed the hardest on this forum. I see so much Muslim-hatred that it makes my toes curl.
If I had a religion, and I saw so many people bash my religion in the same brutal manner Islam is bashed on this board, I don't think I could always stay calm and respectful in answering that.
I see lots and lots of Muslims on this board continue in giving loving, respectful answers in response to all that hatred. How do you do that? I truly wonder.

I have some theories...
-Far not as many Muslims use this site as Christians (Since Yahoo! Answers is primarily a U. S. site, or simply it's just not as popular in Islamic countries, not to mention that Internet access is not that widespread there. Those who have are probably intelligent enough.).
-Persecuted people are more likely to "behave". See the early Christians in Rome or the blacks in 1960s' America.

Speaking as a Christian, I guess they know that some of us understand that you cannot judge a nation by a group of radicals within them. Tolerance at a bear minimum for survival. But respect for each other, religion aside, would be even better.

ALLAH teach us that we must respect others and not be so hard with them .. our prophets in the beginning of Islam had alot of bothering and teasing from ppl who convert later .. he was only smile to them and explain to them in such a great way ..

Are you retarded? So you think blowing things up and killing a nun because the pope said something you didn't like is peaceful? What in God's name is wrong with people nowadays?!

They are not loving and forgiving. Did you know that in the middle east, if a man dies, his wifes body "dead or alive" is put in his coffin and buried with him
