To non believers.?

Question

Why do you non-believers, declare war on believers, the Bible, God, Jesus, all religious faiths? You repeatedly ask, question that are unanswerable, like where did God come from, and many more, just to stir up strife

Answer 1

Because of the harm these superstitions do to society.

Religions historically have stirred up more strife than we ever could. It's time we get past these divisive superstitious beliefs and start working together as a people again.

Answer 2

ok... Why do you who believe in the bible (writen and edited in a man's point of view) declare war on those who do not believe as you do? Same question, different aspect. You are asking what all religious (who are of book religions) ask! Look around you! I am not a NON-BELIEVER, but I do not follow the same ideas and belief structure as the book religions... And I was raised in a book-religion. I have found that those who say we are declaring war, and blaming us for all their problems should start looking around. Most religions are in fact the same! The only thing that changes is that many don't like the way the other religions look because they don't fit what they believe. So there is anger and "war"... I believe there god, but I do not believe that god is a male, nor a female. God is God is God. I believe that Jesus is real and that his main message "Love thy nieghbor as yourself" is the most important lesson that one must learn. To declare WAR in the name of any religion is not only wrong, but is disrespectful of that lesson and the freedom of choise that is our birth right.

Answer 3

Actually, atheists only ask believers questions to demonstrate just how irrational and nonsensical the things believers accept on faith truly are. Why is it that in almost all other matters, we all take it as standard procedure to examine issues critically and reasonably...but when it comes to religion, we're all supposed to just drop to our knees and blindly believe without daring to question even the most absurd claims?

Why is it so hard for the religious to think rationally?

Answer 4

WE declare war? What about the Inquizition, or Jihad, or the Holocaust. Yeah, yeah 6 million Jews. What about the fact that 75% of the Rom population was destroyed as well, for being an impure race? (for those of you that do not recognize that term, you like to call them Gypsies)

War is most often declared IN THE NAME OF (insert deity here). Most of us "nonbelievers" just want to live out our lives in peace. It's you religious fanatics that won't allow that. Then, when we lash back, we are accused of declaring war. Shame on you, who profess to be so pious.

Answer 5

Perhaps its in response to the thousands of quesitons from overtly christian yahoo-ers who continually try to stuff their beliefs deep down our throats. But I do feel that 'declaring war' is a little bit of an exageration when many christian/religious questions are themselve unansewrable.

Answer 6

I don't ask questions to stir strife, I ask questions because they deserve to be asked.

Or if I feel like being in a funny mood, hence the rabbits vs. squirrels, but that's a rarity.

Answer 7

When I ask questions, I know they're answerable. The omnipotent being theory is unanswerable because it's illogical.

Answer 8

Most of us don't. But a lot of the questions I've seen here from other atheists and agnostics are questions that I had back when I was still trying to believe.

Answer 9

I don't recall ever having asked such questions. Why do you perceive your faith as being under attack?

Have you ever read "The True Believer" by Eric Hoffer? It might help you understand your perceptions.

Answer 10

I wasn't aware I declared war on you or anyone else for that matter.

So, you don't like it that people post questions that you don't have the answers to because, what? It makes you think?
