Are you automatically over critical of question or comments because they come from atheists or theists. Not on purpose, but by a self conscious habit. Are you automatically accepting of questions or comments because they come from atheists or theists? Is it easier for you to be judgemental of another opinion, but can't compel yourself to judgemental of your own opinion?

Except that in order for the cosmos to expand, energy had to be placed into matter to move it further away, therefore mass is positive energy. Gravity attempts to constrict the universe, and has negative energy. When you do the math, the numbers add up to something close to zero. So, uh... The Big Bang didn't violate the Law of Conservation (and even if it did, the "M-theory" could also explain the Big Bang without requiring a god [although there is no empirical proof for that, and a god could have created Bulk Space as well]). Basically, the way I look at it, is that if there is a god, it designed the universe in a way that it is undetectable, because it doesn't want us worrying about its existence, but perhaps rather us worry about each other and I could respect such a being. So, in all honesty, there really is no evidence either way. Have fun, enjoy your life, and live as if there is no hereafter.

Not really, I've given thumbs-up to Atheists when they have a good answer, and thumbs-down to Christians for their answers.
I'm not overly critical, I hope not anyway, but am a bit cautious because so many ask a question merely to put their opinion out.
Btw, I'm the most judgemental of my own opinion!

No, I read the Q or A and evaluate it based on its own merits.
I examine my lack of belief and the arguments against it on a daily, objective basis. I started this habit after i realized the number of lies that I had just accepted and not researched while I was a christian creationist.

I'm critical of 3 things (and (a)theism has nothing to do with them):
1. Questions that get asked on a daily basis (drinking questions).
2. Nasty/hateful/inflammatory questions.
3. Condescending/ rude questions.

I'm not sure about 'over-critical' but questions from Christians often exasperate me while few from atheists do.
I'm not accepting of any comments because of who they come from. I'm accepting of comments because of what they say. I frequently disagree with other atheists and occasionally agree with Christians. Obviously it's more often the other way round because I share my broad outlook with atheists not with Christians.

theists have been preaching their same BS for a long time.... they might claim they know it all, but rarely do they let any one else rationally explain the obvious... Eventually it wears on your nerves.... so once we are open to something new like the truth do we care to listen to stale rhetoric.
People like atheists.. (I say like atheist for not all non religious people give into the need to be stereotypically labeled) something new is meant to contemplate.. it's not so much that we agree with these people.. but we are open to new ideas.. people who think for themselves like to share ideas. and get opinions from others... it's not an agree or disagree situation, it's part of how we naturally learn from one another.... and it's NEW.... new things are always welcome.

No. I am critical of questions that "bash" any group. I hate racial slurs and the like. Some of the best questions asked are from Atheists. (I am a Christian).

Naturally, yes but I will some times try to override this in the spirit of open mindedness. Other times I am stubborn. :)

Yes, I think that is a fair comment; I try to be fair but I feel that you may have a point here.
