They're a bunch of Nazis - I think questions are deleted based on feedback received by a bot - no human interaction, thats why its so injust - its a popularity contest and if your question offends people - generally the type of people who would abolish freedom of speech if they were in power, then they'll try to get it taken off.

Some questions get deleted because it violates the rules of the forum. It could have been your question wasn't really a question, as determined by the yahoo panel, or it could have been you posted it to one group, when it should have been posted in another.
Just because a question is 'accepted' doesn't mean that its automatically ok. I doubt there is enough time for every 'censor' to go through every post as it posts to determine violation policies.
Some posts are offensive, some posts are simply clerical errors. Trying to extrapolate from such a small response (considering how much religion bashing does go on in this forum) is a bit premature.
Christianity, as a whole, is a wholly tolerant religion, if properly applied. The trouble is with the practitioners. A car (however well-made) is only as good as the people behind the wheel, unfortunately.

The problem with Yahoo Answers is that if people don't like something somebody writes, they can report the message. If a few people report the same message, it gets deleted, regardless of whether it really broke the community guidelines or not. A lot of messages have been deleted for silly and unjust reasons.
So basically, you're free to ask or answer what you want, but others are free to report it and many report messages that they simply don't agree with, and when enough people do that the message gets deleted. That's not much of a freedom of speech, is it?

Almost all religious teaching is about intolerance,and the very concept of them accepting differing viewpoints or criticism is simply laughable. In the history of the Christian Church for example they have actually attacked and even murdered some of their own for questioning one teaching or another. Just because at one moment or another they are peaceful is not reason to believe the religion itself is peaceful.They are only that way when they feel their authority is reasonably intact. Even now in the US the vitriol and hatred spewing forth from the Christian world is starting to build up as they feel that their influence is in jeopardy. As I see it it's only a matter of a decade or less before the violence begins and they show the true color of the hatred they have planted in the minds of their followers.

I feel that we both should be able to believe however we see fit. I used to doubt God until he made Himself real to me . Now I know he exist. I personally feel that Spiritually and Religion is the wrong place to discuss Science trying to explain away any existence of God. I am ready to hear other ideas just not have them pushed on me as the TRUTH. Believers should have freedom as well.

I've seen far more anti-christian sentiments then what you seem to say.
Perhaps your question had certain words or language deemed to directly target people. I had an answer removed and 11pts deducted because I said someone was 'stup1d', I was right ;) but I understand why the answer was removed. This is not the place to take pot shots at people. There are other forums for that.

I'm sorry, christianity is not a cult. It might be that you didn't ask a question, because I've seen a lot of things said about christianity, myself included.

It IS annoying when they do that, considering the fact that they usually have no reason to delete questions like those.
It happened to me many times, just try to rephrase your question and make it so it seems unreportable.
Good luck!
