Ad Populum
Yahoo Answers assumes the correct answer is the one most voted for (if the asker doesn't select one). This is a logical fallacy that assumes the answer was right because it was the most popular. However, this ignores that a large percentage of the R&S section are going to vote either always for the religious bashers or always for the religious answer just because of personal beliefs.

Ad Hominum: Translated from the Latin for, “To the man,” an ad hominum argument is just that. When an argument starts getting personal and attacks are made against a person, rather than to support an argument, that is an ad hominum logical fallacy. In any situation, mudslinging is a poor substitute for a well-reasoned argument.

If the WWW, or even Wikipedia, didn't exist, maybe .01% would be able to.

You have to believe what the Bible says because it says in the Bible that you have to believe what the Bible says.
Circular reasoning.
