Are all atheists angry? Is it just the people who post here?

Question

I don't why but it seems that the people who describe themselves as Atheist on here seem to be really angry. The premise of most of their questions seems intended to hurt people's feelings and they it's surprising how much they play with the truth to try to make a point. It's amusing, they spend a lot of time trying to poke holes in the bible but it seems like most of their information comes from Wikipedia and fringe websites...and much of it is wrong!! I guess I've moved from a question to more of a statment now....

Answer 1

I answer sincere questions on all faiths without bias. I do not ask questions in order to insult or spread lies about another faith.
Today I have answered questions on Catholicism (many asked by other Christians in an attempt to slander Catholics, btw), Reiki, Buddhism, and Heaven.
Some Christians also use fringe websites to slander other religions and disprove evolution (which doesn't belong in R&S in the first place).

Answer 2

This is becoming another ''drink''question, to add to all the others!
I am not 'angry'. Even if you keep asking this questions along side of the ''other atheist questions, i.e.
1. why are atheists on R&S?
2.Why don't atheists believe in God?
3. why don't atheists have faith in anything?
4.Why don't atheist like christians?
5.Do atheists love anyone?
6, How do atheists console loved ones,or friends, when someone dies?
The list goes on and on!
When christians run out of the same, tired old questions? Atheists will still be around, long after religion has dies away!

Answer 3

Against the advise of others, and after my own uncertainty at first, I have continued to maintain a positive sponsor/sponsee relationship with a self-proclaimed atheist. He is among the most kindest and emotionally stable people that I know. His atheist make-up neither prevents him from having positive traits such as empathy and compassion; nor does it seem to affect his spiritual I.Q., either. He seems to be more of an agnostic, but who am I to say an atheist cannot exhibit caring, patience, love and understanding towards others (a trait many beleivers in "God" obviously lack)?

Answer 4

As quoted by Genesis on another question:

"The fact that atheist are more angrier than theist is no different from the fact a drunk man is angrier than a sober one"

Didn't she say that?
Edit:
Any who, I find it funny how a question is perceived into different ways. If he said the same thing, but used theist a bunch of atheist would be on the agreeing band wagon. Now that he posed it a different way, that is a different story. Ah the logic of a human being.

Edit:
Well Non-de-Plume, when will atheist quit asking the same typical question to theist? I choice to ask question that may challenge a few atheist frame of mind, based on their general perception of life. From what I gather a lot of it falls short of reason. Luckily not everyone is the same.

Answer 5

I suspect that most of the "angry atheists" to which you refer are between 13 and 22, have been raised in religious homes and have issues with authority.

Answer 6

I'm not angry for the most part. I do get angry at Christians for some of things they say. Really, Who wouldn't? But we're supposed to take it while Christians act angry about prayer not being in school and abortion being legal, yet you never hear the phrase Angry Christian. How weird is that?

Answer 7

i have merely had some emails from an 18 365 days previous Christian female who instructed me that i'm an offended Atheist. i imagine she meant cynical, yet i do not pick to be too extreme of the more youthful.

Answer 8

I am an atheist, but I'm not angry. I can see why some of us get frustrated, it's the same christians get frustrated with us. It's a very contraversial topic and debates easily go into arguements. I respect others beliefs because and the happiness it gives them, I am spiritual myself, but in my own way without any gods or goddesses.

Answer 9

You just dont understand Atheists.
They believe that they have no soul, no afterlife, no reincarnation. They believe that they are the random result of "survival of the fittest" with no higher purpose than to be bigger better monkeys than their forefathers. Eat, sleep, have sex at every chance, and any effort at uplifting them leads to them throwing feces at everyone.

When you understand them that way then you must admit that the atheists here are doing a pretty good job of it.

Answer 10

I'm only angry because this same dumb question has been asked about a million times before and I've run out of anything worth drinking
