How many of you are tired of defending the Faith to non- believers? Every time I get the forum I see questions mocking God and Christ. This is a Religious and Spiritual Forum yet many have chosen to mock and ridicule us for our beliefs. I say it is time to take a stand and stop answering their childish questions!
Lets defend the faith by paying no mind to their bad behavior! If your for this movement let your voice be heard!

I am not saying that we should expect not to be mocked, I am saying we should pay no attention to the "does jesus name his boogers questions"- I just saw that posted on here by someone named Q. What is the purpose of a question like that?

I was once a mocker of Christ Jesus, I went into chatrooms, or laughed at people coming from church. God eventually used His chatrooms to convict me of my indifference to Him.
No matter how silly or ridiculous the question seems, I believe the Holy Spirit brings mockers into these forums to hear Gods Truth. Continue preaching Gods Word in truth and love to everyone. I thank God for the people in those chatrooms who never became insulted or gave up on me.
We never know whom God has sent to hear His message.
Only in heaven, will we finally know those who listened to Gods Word through our mouths. We will also know about those whom we turned away.
Do everything out of Love for God and one another.
God Bless You....Peace.

The thing is that by defending the faith, we can use Scripture, and we both know that the Word never returns void to God. So non-believers are hearing the truth about God and Christ, whether they realize it or not.
It does hurt to see Jesus mocked because I love Him more than anything on this earth. I realize that He doesn't need me to defend Him, but it just doesn't seem right to sit back and let others make fun of the Person I love.
Having said all that, I will agree with you in principle that ignoring bad behavior is the best way to deal with it. I'm just not at that stage of detachment yet, I'm afraid.

Yes, I have been thinking the very same thing and I have stopped answering many questions that are just mocking. I answer a lot less questions now than when I first got on this site. What is the point? And I don't need the aggravation. I have a happy life and why do I need fools calling me stupid, etc.

I do not come here to defend my faith. I answer what I think are sincere questions. If some are a little funny I will respond in kind as I suspect that is all that will be listened to.
I do not get real upset.
The rest which are particularly offensive or just hateful, I do not respond to.

They have fun getting a rise out of the Christians . I am going to be very selective of the questions I answer. A few hours ago someone posted a statement it was fun to Bash Christians. Just don't answer mocking or inflammatory questions.

Ok, We do understand Ur frustration with those who are not genuinely seeking answers to real questions, but what if Christ had said "Forget U, I got better things to do!"??? We too find Idiots located here & everywhere U look, but we try to answer those that are serious about getting the Truth as is our mandate from God. Remember it's not our job to make the horse drink, just get him to the water! John & Tam

Pay no attention to those questions don't go into them, By pass them and speak to only your brothers and sisters that are of Christ, and pray silently daily for the lost and blinded and confused, God bless you and your Spirit. For if every one had the Spirit of a child ..And would let it show. God bless you .Amen to your movement..

YES!!! PLEASE stop answering questions that do not apply to you! We are tired of you chiming in regarding questions about Wicca. witchcraft and paganism. We DID not ask your opinion, we already know how ignorant and close minded some of you can be, so stop pushing it on us! People ask for genuine help in those areas and the only thing you know how to do is belittle and condemn. Even tho I am not a Christian I am not going to go into a legitimate question regarding Christianity and do that to you. I think that it is bad behavior on your part not to mention bad manners. DO NOT criticize things that you really know nothing about. What your bible or preacher says about it does not constitute real knowledge. And please stop trying to convert us, we are not trying to convert you. The more you proselytize the farther you will push people away. I will not mock your religion, it is your choice and it is right for you, but your path is not right for everyone. Most of my best friends are Christians and they can accept me for who I am and what I believe without mocking me! Can you do the same?

I recall reading in the bible that as follower of Christ I should expect non-believers to mock me. It should be interpreted as a blessing.
