It just happened to me, lol. Anyway I asked a question in reponse to what I though was an unfair atheist question. The atheist question was loaded, as many questions on here are.
The atheists skipped the main intent of my question and made me seem like the bad guy - which indeed was the purpose of their first question.
Tell me Christians, what is the lesson to be learnt here?

I'm not Christian, but I will tell you that you let yourself be baited. If you can clearly see that it is a loaded question, was it right to try and be a smart aleck?
There are trolls, both religious and atheist. If you aren't careful, you can get sucked in and end up spiraling down into an endless argument of pointless name-throwing and insult-hurling.
This question, for example, is a loaded question. It is literally asking Christians to undermine atheists. A nasty response to a nasty first throw. I'm afraid that broad generalizations do nothing but increase hostility between groups.

Religion prospers amongst the poor and least well-educated - there is a proven correllation between education and belief. This is why you probably got your butt kicked.
And, as a matter of interest, it also explains why there are more believers in prisons around the world than atheists.

There is no lesson to be learned here. there is no such a thing as an atheist. That is just a name that people gave to themselves, and no one, and I repeat, no one can Kicked any christians butt. God will kick the butts of all on here who put down his name and don't believe in him

Show Atheists the same respect you'd want them to show us? lol. But seriously, some people need to be a little more open-minded.

If you can delude yourself about the existence of your god then I am sure you can just as easily delude yourself into thinking that you are smart and that you are capable of winning an intellectual argument with an atheist.
Memory, you shouldn't reference yourself. It just makes you look like a douche.
