Why do so many people (athiests, agnostics and christians)?

Question

Why do so many people judge athiests and agnostics as being ignorant for NOT believing in God or being unsure of his existence

and why do so many people judge christians as ignorant FOR believing in God

I know many athiests and agnostics who base there opinions on research, evidence and understanding and I know many christians who do the same.

So are'nt the real ignorant ones the ones who make the statements that all athiests, agnostics or christians are ignorant?

Mooseback, research hasn't proved there God, but science hasn't proved that there Gods not there.
The fact is they can't believe the world just was and believe theres more to life than living and dying. If anything I respect them for that.

wondermus, I totally agree, ive just noticed on YA its more christians than anyone else

Answer 1

I wondered this very same thing for awhile now. And I agree with your conclusion to the question as well. People that put down others, under all the fluff most likely are unsure of themselves.

Answer 2

While I in principle agree with you, I defy you to point to any reputable research, evidence, or similarly derived understanding that support Christianity.

Religion is a feeling-based belief, not one that has any intellectual basis beyond an apologetic one, in other words, a conclusion in search of support rather than a hard look that allows the evidence to dictate the conclusion.

Yes, it's best not to make snap judgements about anyone. Everyone tries to figure out things in life.
