Do you think you could possibly post on a less populated board? I'm sorry if I sound like I'm being intolerant, but some of the people in here (myself included) are actually trying to find out the deeper meaning of what people believe and why. I want to understand the way people and other cultures think

God reveals himself in many different ways.
You may think a question/ answer is random and pointless ... but someone else may find enlightenment in it. Since the age ranges here are from 13 years old and older ... well, sometimes the generation gaps can irritate.
However, I am against "Harassment", "Adult Content", and "Insulting others" and sometimes call them on it when I do see it (reporting by clicking on the flag thing). Check out the community guidlines next time you ask a question, and you'll read what the YA community says you have power over.
"Birds of a feather flock together" and usually these ppl populate a section, and then all disappear.

I completly agree with you! I say If people have a question that has nothing to do with religion they need to ask it in the write catagory. And follow the rules People treat this site like its a message board or a forum.
It may be freedom of speech and 1st amendment right, but that is why there are lots, and lots of catagories. so that people can put their questions in the appropriate catagory. I'm sure the creator of Yahoo Answer's did not make this for people to come here and put their question's in the wrong catagory.

...I think there are actually MORE pointless questions on the board since you've posted this. There's a random barking dog guy, the Sucks To Be Me Dork, the What Does This Mean Moron and of course, the original and inimitable What Do I Do Retard. And lots of other things that have nothing to do with the topic. I think everybody just posts of the Religion board because they know that's the one everybody visits.

Thank you for asking. But there is nothing that those of us who want serious discussion on here can do about who posts...Just makes it a bit more of a challenge to sort through what is being said to determine what is serious gathering of information and what is from immature people just trying to entertain themselves at other peoples expense.
Immature people looking to entertain themselves will always seek out the biggest audience that has the most passionate people because they will get almost immediate feedback.....psychology 101

I completely agree with you, and I used to report all the pointless and/or off-topic questions to YA to help clean up the place. They don't do anything about it, so I don't bother any more. The sad thing is that now I don't bother coming to this forum unless I have A LOT of patience.

It would seem that most here, are here to ridicule christians. They feel the need to justify their Godless lives by looking down on others.
It ok though, keep carrying the massage, God will do the work.
We are worth a Son to God.

Don't worry about it. They will get tired of it and go find something else to do after a while. Just scroll over their silliness. Got a question? Go ahead.

1st amendment rights. You have the right to be pointless, ignorant and as stupid as you care to be.
