We regulars know that the question "Why are athiests (sic) in the religion section?" (or some variation of this question) is asked here at least 10 times a day. Now, I just logged in about 25 minutes ago, but have already answered 5 questions that were directed towards atheists. Why do (mostly) Christians want us to leave, yet ask so many questions of us?
I'm pretty sure I know, but I'd like others' thoughts. Thanks :)

Earl: You left out the burrito questions, and the Adam and Eve belly button ones. Also, you forgot to tell me what color your hair is :)

Hmm. Hi buddy.
I'm a Christian and *I* certainly don't want you to leave.
I don't want ANYONE to leave. Well, I DO want the trolls to behave more and maybe think for 2.3 nano-seconds before posting. But, other than that, no, I don't believe that I want anyone to leave.
Heck, I don't even want people to log off for the day!

I don't think Christians want Atheists to leave so much as not be so troll-like and ask at least reasoanble questions and some do.
The same thing with answers.
You're not going to invoke good will with Sky Daddy remarks.
What is boils down is a matter of what you believe (or don't believe) vs. what we believe (or don't believe) and it's mostly a matter of conjecture on both sides.
You CANNOT get Richard Dawkins to stand up on TV and say 100% MAN CAME FROM APES, he won't do it. He knows better. He's not it's an iffy theory and not a reality and he won't say it until Science as a whole backs him up.
But you guys say it, like it's fact. When it isn't.
Atheists (or trolls or whatever) constantly use the ADAM AND EVE incest theme
But you can't explain to us if or if not Lucy was having sex with a male of her speices (if she had one) or a chimp.
You can't explain to us how the first FUSED GENE creature propegated.
The obvious things we can explore is for some strange reason hundreds of FUSED GENE creature apprerd at once (highly unlikly) or the FUSED GENE creature mated with UN FUSED GENE creatures and then common GENETICS took over.
As with Black mice and White mice
or Blue Parrots and Yellow Parrots
Your kind has taken me on over the Primordial Muck, which is what I was taught by Science is our origins (the religioius view is from the dust of the Earth, can't see much difference) and that we came from cell division, hermophiditism and finally dual sexuality.
That IS the DARWININ VIEW of how DUAL sexuality came about. It came about from cellular division to mating pairs via EVOLTUION.
So your scientific heritage is as questionable as the Adam and Eve heritage.
There is NO evidence in complex biology to show that a species forms EN MASS.
In otherwords there is NO BASIS to totally believe that on March 1st there were no Australipithicuses and on March 2nd suddenly there were 1,000 of them.
The generally accepted viewpoint or most probably is one day a chimp was born with a slightly different gene arrangement. One of those 2,000,000 different genes that separate man from primate. And that new chimp mated with another normal chimp and genetics started making some chimp babies with that gene and others without it.
And over 400,000 years this snowballed until one day man-chimps could no longer impregnat chimp-chimps and thus had to make within their own kind and a "species" is formally born.
So when you say Adam and Eve were involved in incest, your are ignoring how your own linage might have happened Evolutionarily.
And you're not going to get Dawkins to say that MAGICALLY one day 400 new gene chimps were born in the world and they migrated and mated amongst themselves.
While there is basis for conjecture along these lines, there is no proof, bilogically.
And don't give us VIRILOGICALLY for there is a big different in single cell biology and complex creature bilogy.
So instead of silly, irreverant questions that get us no where, other than us questioning your parentage in return, since you question ours (fair is fair).
Why not ask more relevant questions.
Afterall you guys claim to be smater, more educated, more mature.
And we can easily see that from all the Bart Simpson icons adopted by Atheists.
Yes, Atheists use BEVUS as worship hero
That's very intellgent and mature.

I have no idea, but I would like to say that the questions are geared to the Christians as why do you believe in a Fairy Tale quite alot also
I guess it is because you have new ones on here or some who just want to provoke anyone they can just to get a laugh
I just Shrug it off

I don't think I ever asked you to leave. The thing is I don't really understand why people would be an atheist because I have believed in God my whole life so I ask questions to try and understand you.

Why be so sensitive? Ignore the questions you do no like. It is that Christians want you to leave, but we would like everybody to follow the guidelines so that this environment is pleasant.

Because the few that want atheists to leave are in the minority. Most of us love having atheists here, and want to understand how you guys think.
At least, that's how I see it.

Maybe we can move the atheists into the Sociology section or create a sub-section in there :-S

Not sure, but I think it has something to do with tummy aches...But hey! guess what...I the PEEERRRRRfect cure for such tummy aches...it's an age old secret acupuncture technique.
Take an empty pin cushion.
Fill it with numerous sharp pins.
Obtain chair.
Place pin cushion upside down on chair.
Sit on chair.
Hey presto! you won't be thinking of your tummy ache anymore!
