They come because they are spoiling for a fight. They come to stir people up and cause trouble and dissension. Of course they pretend they are asking legitimate questions but they are just dangling a line and waiting for a fish to grab the bait.
Don't bother with them. Scrap them off your shoe and keep walking. That's the best advice I can give you.

Because the category refers to the topic of the questions, not the people who answer. Any user is entitled to ask and answer in any category, so long as they do it reasonably politely.
If you want to know why I personally spend so much time here, I'll tell you. I'm a ******** optimist, and I believe I can maybe be a counter-force to the brainwashing the fundamentalist Christians and Muslims are spouting.
The key problem is the concept of Faith. It is generally taken to mean belief in the absence of evidence, or even in the face of evidence to the contrary. We would not accept such an illogical standard of belief in any other area of our lives, so why should we accept it here, where it could matter more than anywhere?
BTW, have you heard about the drinking game yet? Every time we answer a question that's been asked at least a hundred times, we get a drink.
*drink* (Relax; it's only iced tea.)

I'm here to tell people the truth about how reality actually operates. Most don't want to hear it and that makes my mission even more urgent. I honestly fear that people who believe in God represent a clear and present danger to the survival of human civilization.

You've posted this question probably twice already. Lemme say it once again. Because they may have to ask a non-offensive question involving religion or spirituality, or want some proper debate.

You must be new, since this question was asked about 10 minutes ago. Not to mention the gigantic search bar on this page. And the fact that as you were typing the title, you saw many relevant questions already asked.
