Especially when they don’t really ANSWER THE QUESTION ASKED, but just respond with glib one-liners that repeat what the other half dozen atheists who responded before them already said.
For example, I asked a question last week addressed to people of certain four religious groups asking how they reconciled their belief in God with the obvious reality of pain & death.
Several atheists chimed in just to say, in effect, we don’t have these philosophical problems because we don’t believe in God.
Well, DUH. I wasn’t asking you.
And the first guy who responded already said it anyway. You weren’t adding anything to the discussion.
This happens most of the time.

"Perhaps if you think about the answers that you don't like, you will learn something"
Amazing how many people DID NOT READ my question!
It is not the answers that I don't LIKE that I am complaning about! It is the ones that don't ANSWER THE QUESTION ASKED!
Is that so hard to comprehend?

A guy just asked if his questions were too
long, and "athiest eye candy" (give me a friggin break) answered:
I don't know, I only answer athiests questions.
I thought that was equally as rude. If all she wanted was an athiest's perspective, why the hell is she on a Religion forum??
It goes to show that some people simply
have no integrety, decorum, or respect.

What I have noticed is that it's not the popular atheists who are on here. It's usually little 13 year old kids being jerks.
They're usually the same ones who tell someone that prayer doesn't work whenever someone has died instead of shutting up and just telling them that they're sorry to hear their news.

I have to agree with the atheists even if I'm not one of them. There are yahoo forums for specific groups and you can moderate them as tightly as you want. This place should be called Doctor Crazy's Free For All, hahahaha

I'm not atheist, but I can say that I'll answer questions that aren't specifically addressed to me if I feel I can add something useful to the debate. As long as what I say pertains to the argument (and is well-worded and polite), it's not invalid.

They are slanderers, boasters, haters of God, full of dispute, proud, filled with unrighteousness......read Romans 1:28-32.
That is what people are like without God and without self control. Just pray for them and have some compassion for them because they are on the road to eternal destruction. Many of us were on that same road at one time. Praise God for His mercy! (see Ephesians 2:1-5)

I wonder why you post in a public forum if you wish answers from a private group.
Perhaps if you think about the answers that you don't like, you will learn something.

I wonder why some Christians post questions in an open forum and then get their panties in a wad when someone who doesn't agree with them answers.

Are you suggesting that atheists know less about death than you do? Your question was a bit closed-mindedly bigoted.

Because they just come here to feel good about themselves.
