If you hate these gods so much, or don't believe in them, why would you waste your time asking about them? To stir up trouble? If you don't like something, avoid it. There's enough negativity in the world already. Don't you think so?

While I agree with you in principal, there is a great deal of discrimination against those who do not believe in god(s), so often they ask questions meant to challenge the premises upon which belief is based simply to get people to understand their thinking. I think it's important that we theists learn to accept that a person can be moral, ethical, responsible and good without belief in deities, and the more we learn about atheistic thought processes, the more we understand this. They ask questions about gods to force us to examine our beliefs in relation to theirs, and I think that is a good thing.

Because these people's agenda is precisely to spread neagtivity. And the more passionate the subject, the more intense the negativity that gets generated. They are active promoters of the attraction of negative energy that is responsible for the entire scope of tragedy that we know as life on Earth in 2007.The most insidious part of it is that they are masters at manipulating good people with honest and sincerely good intentions, to think, act and react negatively, because they understand very well the Universal Laws and how to use them to further their own sick end. Unfortunately for the rest of us, their own sick end means ours as well.

The ignorance and fear which spawn religion is what causes the negativity of which you speak. We wish to enlighten the ignorant masses in an attempt to REDUCE the negativity.

Sometimes we feel negatively drawn to something or someone for a reason. Maybe we have something to learn from or about it/them.

The ultimate goal of the Atheist is to encourage free thought, and a questioning nature.

If believers of said gods don't "believe" in evolution, why don't they stop asking questions about it, let alone in the religion category.
It's two sided. Don't attack our side without attacking your own.
