It sounds offensive and I'm sure it trivializes the question. I notice that it is only atheists that do it. I just think it's another minor annoyance on YA to contend with. Why be rude to honest questions ? It sounds sarcstic like "I'll drink to you because of your stupidity". I appreciate it when atheists do NOT continue this childish game.

But people cannot know if a question is asked 20 times already, all of us get on YA at different times. Rarely is any question stupid in my opinion.(Unless it's just intened to get a rise out of someone)

I don't think that asking if atheists celebrate Christmas is stupid. There is just a better way to phrase it such as "Do atheists celebrate the superficiality of Christmas but neglect the original meaning"? Does it bother them...?

*Drink* "people" are those that believe that they are smarter then anyone else. They think that it is a way to act as if the question is way below them.
Funny thing is, then why answer at all?
Btw, "Childish" is an understatement. The "drink" people have a lock on dumb answers.

" do no longer provide what's holy to dogs, neither throw YOUR pearls before swine, that they'd by no skill trample them less than their ft and turn round and rip YOU open" ." If one individual of each and every of the individuals took know what's being suggested by skill individuals, it really is all we settle on. Watchtower mag has no longer something to do whats in this website. in case you be conscious we attempt to apply in basic terms the Bible. We in basic terms opt for to evangelise to those that are meek and teachable. because the scripture above state and skill why waste whats non secular on those who do not get exhilaration from it, in basic terms as a swine would not get exhilaration from effectual pearls.i do not ever remember putting magazines on line so attempt back and also you will get it top. You by no skill look to hit the mark.

mmmm...its a backhanded criticism that reflects their answer to life's questions in general. JUST KIDDING...
you gotta thicken the skin beloved or you will be mildly annoyed all day. Asking sincere questions and getting offensive answers or giving sincere answers to flippant questions is common for me...You just have to hope the seed falls on fertile soil.

Yes they can know the question has been asked a 1,000 times. As soon as they start typing the question, it shows you similar questions.
Most of the time they are really dumb questions. Like why don't you believe if god? Or if we came from monkeys why are there still monkeys.

It isn't just the atheists who do it. I'll drink to a question (even if I'm not drinking alcohol) if it's been asked too many times, and I'm a Christian.
It's just part of the fun of R&S. Drinking questions, VTs, bran muffins, Aaron Carter...
When you've been here for awhile, you start to see that the same questions get asked WAY too often. It's so easy just to use the search function to see if the question has been asked before.
You can guarantee that all of the so-called drinking questions have been asked HUNDREDS, if not THOUSANDS, of times.

I've seen many people *drink* when they don't have anything intelligent to say. Like they say, there are no dumb questions, only dumb answers.
For people who say that the question has been asked many times already, they do have an option - they shouldn't respond. It's much better than a senseless answer.
Ignore them, sweetie!

I dont mind it at all. I think it is funny and even Father K likes an occasional snort to a question asked over and over again.

I'm a drinking theist. I drink to questions put forward by atheists and theists alike.
Thanks for asking, but no-thanks for assuming...
UPDATE: "But people cannot know if a question is asked 20 times already."
This is easily proven with the search feature. PLUS - we're here throughout the day, and we are well aware of redundant questions.

No, we drink to the questions that have been asked an insanely ridiculous number of times
like : if we came from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?
edit : and yes, when you type in a question it lists similar or the same questions.
