Yes.
LOLz
Now if anyone else had asked that question I woulda jumped up and down like a crazy think shouting DENY! DENY! ... but cos it's you I'll admit I would love to be caste into the realms of ignorance and or superstition.
Isn't it a shame that knowledge can never be undone?

I usually don't read the answers before I answer but this time I did. One answer was if you fart in the woods and no one was around would it be smelt? Yes, for you are there. As for some of the atheist they need to needle others for their lack of belief, not the Christian. Some want to see what others think, even if it is different. Now there are others who are looking, as I once did. All questions have several answers, you or I may not agree any or all. I could go on but most will not want to listen.

i know that no one will read my anwer anyway, so i can put anything i want on here...
I don't believe in the christian god, or any other god for that matter, does that make me an atheist?if so then yes, i put questions on here all the time. of course it is stuff like what kind of ram is better, if you fart in the woods and no one is around to hear it is it still deadly, stuff like that. just because I dont believe in a religion dosen't mean I am a bad person, or that I will go to hell, just that when I die it means that my adventure is just begenning :P
btw i am not an emo :P just a computer nerd with too much time on his hands

no.
honestly, I believe that everyone wants to feel smarter than some other people, and believers are an easy target. The book that my faith is based on is full of flaws and contradictions and crazy stories---many of my fellow believers are flawed and have done stupid/amoral things, and the majority of science believes in things that contradict and deny the existence of a Supreme Being. Throughout history many people have done amoral things and said that they did it because God told them to do it. And, finally, atheism is very fashionable among young people.
So---I think that many atheists come to R&S to feel clever and superior and to ridicule believers.

I think they want to believe in spirits and mediumship and psychic ability ...
or maybe they want to know about the Buddhist philosophy
or perhaps they are interested in the many Gods of Hindusim
maybe they just like debating religion ?
there are more to this site than Christians and Atheists you know
so as a Spiritualist am I also here to be saved ?

Yes...I admit it...I wanna be saved by your god even though I've already been there and done that and I know myself better than you could possibly know me. Somehow your insight and wisdom into my inner psyche is much more truer than mine. What in the hell was I thinking all these years? To come to realize my own personal truth after much consideration and then to have a complete stranger tell me that she knows what is in my heart better than I do!!
I bow down to your intellect, madame.

Oh there gonna love you now.Some just think they can torment Christians by some of the funny remarks,but I think some hate religion but not God.They expect Christians to spew all kinds of judgment and hate on them,with all the dogma that religion can spew.I love them and just know God really will reach them.Even if they don't know it.

No, I do not. I think one or two ask questions just to bait and goad us....to ridicule us.....
like
"Do you think all Christians ought to be sterilized?"
"Do you think that only atheists ought to be able to procreate?"
"Do you think Christians' children ought to be taken from them because they abuse their children by telling them about an imaginary sky daddy?"
You know....THOSE kind of questions...
Seriously,,,,,,I think some come here to hate on all believers and to be arrogant.....not to learn, not to help, but to rip on anyone who do not share their beliefs.
It's a game to them. They get off on being unkind.
It is hurtful to some of us, but they love doing stuff like that.
A FEW of them are more judgemental than the ones they rip on and criticize.

Do the believers enter into debates with atheists and post here because they are secretly atheists themselves, or wish they were? Hmm...something to think about.

maybe they are preparing for their own little version of '"no atheists in foxhole moment."
I am sure it is not to poke fun and ridicule. They have better things to do with their life besides fight what they believe does not exist. OR maybe they do believe. good point
