I was scanning for questions to answer and a a rough count yeilder that about 15 in 20 were atheists with mock question and 4 in 20 were Christians looking for converts and maybe one in 20 is a legit question. Is this what people really want?
They say people get world they deserve but I think we can do better than this. And to the people who just use this as a place to mock religion, you are giving atheists a bad name.

Some use the forum as a pulpit. Some look for entertainment. Some want to mock and be obnoxious. But I think atheists ask sincere questions about things that don't make sense. Behind a lot of the sarcasm is a sincere desire to believe. But you can't teach about spiritual things to someone who really has no interest in them. They won't understand.
Many people are embarrassed to let others know they are truly interested in religion. What will the other atheists think of them?
Just answer as best you can and plant whatever seed you can. God will make it grow.

I see it. I think we can straighten this thing out if we simply do not respond to questions that you know are only posted to cast doubt or try to prove that God does not exist. As Christians we do not need to stand up for God or defend our beliefs. He will do this himself in his own time. As for trying to convert someone, I guess it could happen, but probably not. You can tell by the question if you need to respond to someone asking a serious question. I like to have fun with this, but I wish we could have some intresting conversation here.

The phenomenon is through the recent study findings. The previous study stated that with a view to persuade human beings and save authorities as needed one ought to educate understand and be promptly thinking political methods. the recent study on the different hand says some thing distinct altogether. It says that spending infinite hours fairly on "Yahoo solutions faith and Spirituality type (and in no way some thing else) mocking human beings's loved beliefs is the shown thanks to "save faith out of my authorities." the recent study findings seem as stupid as a rock to me for my section.

Similarly, those people who just use Y!A to attempt to convert without actually asking a legitimate question are giving religious people a bad name too...

not really, but i cant say i'm not riding the bandwagon myself. I mean it is pretty entertaining. but it wouldn't be bad if some real question were being asked buy the christans and us atheists. matter o' fact, i think i might do that right now.

Lighten up, don't take this forum so seriously and stop taking yourself so seriously, we sure don't.
The atheists are trying to make people think, and those who are trying to get converts are seriously deluded.
