When Christians ask questions on here and you rush in with your wit and sarcasm does it make you feel good to ridicule and insult us? Or is there a part of you that is curious and still open to the message. It seems to me there are other catagories that would give better answers to your comments than here where most of us love and accept you.

As a non-Christian, I don't usually ridicule or insult Christians. However, I post documented facts about Islam and quote the Qu'ran directly yet Yahoo! Answers staff typically deletes them for being "epithets or slurs" even though what I am presenting are facts, not just some kind of embarrassing stereotype. The facts are embarrassing enough, I have no need to make slurs or stereotype

Judging from the posts, most of those here who call themselves Christians do not accept non-Christians. Some of them do not even accept other versions of what passes for Christianity.
If anything, the non-Christians here are the ones who are trying to shine a light of tolerance on those who damn us to hell without a second though.
Is there a part of you that is still open to the possibility that maybe a part of your bible or church teaching is wrong? The first time around, Jesus repudiated some of the bible's teachings and rebuked the teachers and rulers of the church. What makes you think that if he came around again he wouldn't do exactly the same thing?
The ethical teachings of Jesus transcend the centuries and if the world followed them, it would be a better place. Of course, the same could be said for the teachings of the Buddha.
I try and live an ethical life because I feel it is the right thing to do for this life - whether or not there's a life after this. If you want to believe in things beyond nature, I don't have a problem with that. If you want me to believe or if you condemn those who don't believe, that's when I have a problem.
Go in peace to love and serve the truth.

It's no different when Non-Christians ask a question and some Christians rush in with the "You know you're going to hell". As for being open, I'll listen. But listening doesn't equal accepting everything a person says.
And I have to disagree... most do Not love and accept Non-Christians. Some may. Some have shown respect/common courtesy. But on the other hand, some have not.

Love and acceptance....ya right. You love and accept only your own like minded people.... Why continue to spread lies? Be honest about it for crying out loud. Do you love and accept homosexuals? Muslims? I didnt think so. Threatening me with terroristic ideas of eternal damnation isnt exactly loveable.

Conservative Christians- and I make a distinction between them and normal Christians- are ridiculous people so they deserve ridicule.

NEWS FLASH: Telling people that they are going to hell does not equate with "Love and Acceptance."

love and accept whom, exactly? I don't go around bashing much, but your last line is a blatant lie, and you know it
