athiests in the R/S section?

Question

how come i keep seeing this question come up? athiests ask questions about christianity. it should be those who ask about evolution (namely christians) that should take themselves to the SCIENCE section as evolution is science not a religion.

think, if your a computer geek and want to know how to cook, why would u ask your question on cooking in the computer geek section.... wouldnt u take it to the cooking section?

Answer 1

Meh, either way it's a free country. People can post where they want.

Answer 2

Your question is very confusing as to just what it is that you are asking. Are you saying that if someone whats to ask a question about evolution why are they asking it in the R/S section instead of the Science section?

I have not followed any questions that were asked about evolution. If it is a purely science question it should be in the science section. However, I suspect that if an atheist is asking and is asking it here then maybe it is not a purely science question. In that case they want to see how a Christian will respond. And that is IMO, a good thing.

And in my church Evolution is not a problem. God created the world and he could do it anyway he wanted. In the Episcopal Church God and Evolution can go together just fine.

You seem assuming that people who flow to this website are "regulars" which some are yet maximum at the instant are not hence the will to re-submit what seems to be repetitive responses to particularly some the repetitive questions asked right here very almost hourly. additionally do no longer subsume that there is any form of consensus among skeptics on right here the two. all human beings is distinctive even interior particular international perspectives. ultimately take this with a grain a salt--no wait--make that a boulder in fact, on account which you have have been given to realize that for some human beings this would be a variety of uncommon daily activities while they'd somewhat vent approximately religious and non religious perspectives. In different words, do no longer enable this "get to you" on account that is strictly what approximately 0.5 the folk who submit right here get their rocks off doing anonymously over the internet.

Answer 4

Most christians DON'T ask about evolution. They've already decided it's bullsh*t, and don't want to know any more, for fear it might make sense, I guess. And if they do ask those silly questions, like "why are there still monkeys"....they have to ask them here, so they can blame the answers on "people trying to undermine religion." If they asked those questions in the science section, they'd be slammed by people who don't care what religion they are.

Answer 5

I agree.

This is a place to openly ask questions, not just to all pat ourselves on the back because we all validate each others faiths

I love the diversity in here and I hate that the 'Atheists in the R/S section' question pops up several times a day

Answer 6

I like your question. I agree with it too. But if all the christians went to the science section who would be here to answer your questions?

Answer 7

Hmm,

Religion should be in the Mythology section I feel. Athiests should be in the Folklore. That makes sense.

Answer 8

So you want atheists to go to the science section?

Answer 9

People who usually ask about Science want a religious opinions. The question usually includes some hint at religion or spiritually.

Answer 10

there are religious aspects to evolution, that's most likely why they ask here. the evolution questions i see here generally have a religious slant to them, either for or against. i don't see people asking scientific evolution questions here.
