I have noticed, no matter what is asked of an Atheist, the asker ignores the Atheist answer.
I don't understand it?
I'll put some links in brb.

Dear 'Me' I ALWAYS choose a Christian best answer, to a question aimed at them out of Principle, if I choose a best answer at all.

A lot of times on Y!A askers don't want to hear other opinions as much as they want to hear their own opinions reflected back to them.
It's not just something that occurs in this section but everywhere.

Simply one word
Bias.
Most questions directed towards a different religion than the asker, aren't really questions. They're just to get a rise out of the other side, then they pick the person that agrees with them.
Happens on all sides, not just Christian Q, Atheist A

If they had listened in the first place and not be so easily swayed back into religion... they wouldnt be religious in the first place.
If they accepted new ideas and think and analyze for themselves UNBIASSEDLY, then they wouldnt stay religion too long. One would eventually see the flaws in religion set by the people who wrote them so long ago.
I am always curious... do religion people believe in magic?
I mean if someone can magically create the world, and their are angels flying about, and people rising fromt the dead...
Then its not too far off that someone can as magically rise a fireball in their hands and throw it around ... like in a video game! I know they dont, but whats the logic behind that?
You;ve never witness the rising from the dead yourself, the angels flying about, magically things being "popped" into the world infront of your eyes, just like you've never see a mage throw fireballs around.
Whats makes what you believe justified and not the other nonsense?
So if I throw in a really old book written by someone with some historical context linked with it, you;ll believe people can cast fireballs?

people like to stick to their own, a christian will side with a christian because they are christian for a reason and thats because they either don;t understand or don;t agree with Atheism which is true of all religions when looking at the other ones.
They ask questions not to understand the other point of view but to rather fuel their own opinions and find people they think are right regardless of what the question intended.

Just because the're the 'best answer' doesn't make them the right answer. At the end of the day, no Christian (or follower of any other religion) can prove the existence of god so they will never convince us Atheists that there is one.

Why are you complaining?
The first two links, as I saw, lead to questions that was more or less aimed as atheists.
But the best answer wasn't biased or critical of the atheists. In reality, the first links' best answerer wrote in favour of them.
It just means the answer of the Christian was better than the answer of anyone else in that case. It is not discrimination.

Because religious askers are close-minded to the truth about the answers that Atheists post. They only want to pick a Christians answer to make them look good

Because they want confimation of there theory or and are using as an echo chamber.
JUST LIKE YOU ARE.
You are going to seclect on of the "echo chamber" reponses becuase your theory.
But your not even considering selecting an answer that explains it is because atheism can not adaquately explain the answer.

Yes, I'm pretty sure that more athiests give best answers to Christians, if they are thoughtful answers, and not swathes of cut and paste bible, than the other way round.
Unfortunately a lot (not all) of Christians do not "allow" themselves to have open minded thoughts, and so don't recognise them in others.

To be fair, I'm amassing an embarrassingly large score despite being an intolerant anti-religious bigot. And they aren't all from atheists.
I think.
Well - hope.
