Agree/disagree: If unbelievers would stop talking about religion, believers would also stop talking about it?

Question

Thirty answers in five minutes - did I hit a hot button?

Answer 1

Must disagree.

I would hope that all the children would settle down, but in their present DNA form, they've been arguing for several million years and will continue to do so. Besides, they've worked so hard to develop conflict into an amazingly complex art form.

If everybody became a Christian, they'd argue amongst themselves like they did in Europe for centuries. If they all became Marxists, they'd argue amongst themselves like Stalin and Trotsky did.

I'd be happy if the children could just keep the volume turned down and not break any windows in the house.

Answer 2

Disagree

Answer 3

Funny, Noam said about Christians trying to convert him. I don't care if he converts. He's a big boy, he can make his own decisions. My mind is made up.
Now, Christians don't talk about religion because non believers do. Talking about Christ is something we do, just like bashing him is something non believers do. I disagree.
I do want to know why non believers in any higher being are in the religion and spirituality answer section when atheist are lacking in both. Atheism is not a religion. It is a lack there of. They just like to argue.
Tell me, why aren't they bashing the Muslims, Islams, Buddhists, etc.

Answer 4

The subject of god and religion is treated with such passion that believers try to defend it even when they don't know their foot from their a-ss, we as non-believers get angry because we can't even start to believe how many blind people there are, so we make our point, and feel a little relief in getting our thoughts out, even when believers are so full of it and never admit anything we say.

Answer 5

I disagree. I asked a question to both Christians as well as non religious people and even non Christians if they would be willing to leave each other alone if the other side agreed and that didn't pan out well. You see one side the non Christians and non religious people said that they would be willing to agree to it but the Christians said absolutely not. Oh well it is what it is.

Answer 6

Disagree! Believers will never stop talking about religion.

Answer 7

Believers believe it is their duty to spread the word, to help save all the souls of the world. So no You'd never stop, if you did then you wouldn't be religious. Besides I am still looking for that one true word which will give me faith, belief in forgiveness, If you stopped then all hope for me would be gone.

Answer 8

Agree/disagree:

If believers would stop bashing unbelievers for not being a b eliever, unbelievers would stop making fun of belivers?

Answer 9

I'd hope that all believers of any faith would always feel free to talk about their faith. I'd also hope that they'd be respectful of those that don't believe and not be demeaning to them. In the same way, I'd hope that unbelievers would allow believers to express themselves without lambasting them for believing.

Or in short, NO.

Answer 10

Disagree. The ones talking are the ones knocking on my door this peaceful afternoon when I was trying to take a nap.
