Why don't atheist like to be questioned?

Question

Is this question worthy of a violation notice? How about if I ask atheist to demonstrate they know basic knowledge?

Obviously those both must be very evil questions because I keep getting my questions deleted. So what is wrong atheist, are you just running from something that scares you? Why would any atheist report either of those questions?

I don't think I will post any more logic puzzles, most have already shown that logic is not an atheist strong point. I know they pride themselves on their logic, and I'm sure that is why I am getting notices...but that was kind of my point...so you are just kind of helping me out. Just because you realize you aren't the most logical person in the world, doesn't mean you have to also act childish.

Isn't this the kind of behavior that atheist hate? Running and dodging questions, reporting people when they get questioned? Hurling insults instead of answers?

There are probably 10 atheist on here that should know for sure that this is not directed to them, they should know who they are :)

Lucid...real questions like "Do Churches take donations by Paypal?"

Very insightful question.

I love all the insults, really I do.

But condescending? Coming from most atheist, that is a joke. Most not just hold their beliefs, they go out of their way to tell believers that they are idiots for believing in a higher power. So most are calling the majority of the world idiots...but I am condescending...lol.

Answer 1

Why can't people form the plural of "atheist"?

Answer 2

I generally only report stuff that is blatantly against community guidelines and those tend to be strong, negative racial rants or blatant spam for promoting various non-related websites. I have never reported any question just because I disagreed with the question.

For a self proclaimed thinker, you have just made a major blunder in assuming that an atheist or even a group of atheists reported your questions. As far as I know there is not a way to track who reports a given question, so it could very easily be a troll or just someone that you had offended.

If your questions are being reported, challenge the report as if they are valid and not against the guidelines it will reduce the creditability of the reporter.

Answer 3

Wow look at how defensive their getting lol. Ever noticed all of the atheists on ya? I mean i'm starting to think that all they have is a computer cause god couldn't grace them with anything else better to do. How sad. Nice question by the way, you should probably make it a little shorter and use smaller words for the atheists sake. I mean they should take what they got right now cause when that certain time comes their going to have to explain why they don't believe. :)

Answer 4

Your questions may have been deleted because they did not belong in the category. Yes, we all know that your purpose was to "prove" that atheists are not logical. But the fact was, the questions themselves had nothing to do with R&S. Furthermore, not being able to figure out the answers to your questions does not actually show that atheists are not logical. How about you show why the logical arguments that atheists use to show that there is no proof of god's existence aren't correct, rather than using mathematical puzzles to test our reasoning skills?

Answer 5

Obviously you are in a psych 1a class and suddenly your armed with all sorts of (k)new ideas. So you can now plagiarize questions from your textbooks. Does that make you think your so very smart. I don't think any atheist would report you, your just to good for a laugh!

Just remember a little knowledge is a dangerous thing>

Answer 6

Too bad there isn't a thumbs down option for a question.

You are clumping atheists into a narrow group, when all that makes someone atheist is lack of belief in gods. Just because the decision is logical doesn't mean every atheist has been educated in mathematical logic.

Answer 7

I looked at your logic questions and quite frankly I am out of practice in those types of puzzles. I used to be in Logic and Reasoning competitions. That's something you can either do for fun or as a challenge to your mind. I don't think broad generalizations are going to help your cause out very much.

Also your puzzles are just games and have no significance to R&S.

Answer 8

How about if I ask atheist to demonstrate they know basic knowledge?
--Haven't we already done that in our previous postings? Why do we need to satisfy you? We're not trained monkeys. Put away that quiz book you just bought from Borders.

Refusing to answer your question doesn't mean I'm illogical. It's illogical to think so. So we are reportiong you because we pride ourselves on logic? What logic are you using to deduce that, Matlock?

And for the record, I never reported you.

Answer 9

What question?
Is there something you've asked that's answerable, or do you just post condescending nonsense in the form of a question?

(And personally, the only time I've ever reported anyone is when I've felt the question was an inappropriate question related to children.)

Answer 10

I thought The Dude straightened you out on your 'logic puzzles' the other day? And trust me, your posts aren't worth reporting.

Edit: Here's a link to the 'question' where The Dude made a fool of this guy - not that the asker needs any help in that department lol:

Answer 11

Not all of them are like that, but yes, there are a few who seem to ride on the coattails of smarter atheists who've actually done their own research to arrive at their conclusions, and pretend to be as smart and above questions as Dawkins, Nietzsche, or Shaw or whoever.

Parroting is parroting, no matter your religion or lack thereof.
