why do atheists:

[sith123]

try to ask so many questions to theists however when we ask them lots of questions we are called fanatics, idiots and a whole lot of other names?

[sith123]

lol, waaleykum masalam pdust, i agree with you completely :)

[sallybb]

pdust, and why would that upset other ABers

[sith123]

well you get upset when one muslim discusses there views so if theres 2 imagine the shock that would cause.

[vulcan]

sith123 you say you don't wish to kill anyone, that's fair enough and I believe you. however you must admit there are Muslim fanatics who want to kill people of other religions. That by definition means their religious belief is such that they think it is perfectly correct to kill people in the name of religion. How do you justify their reasoning ?

[pdust]

it was a joke sally... most people on here have known me a long time and know my silly sense of humour

[sallybb]

Sith .Wrong, I dont get upset. I have many friends from many religions, providing they do not push their believes on to me I dont have a problem. Many of them dont realise i'm a non believer, . I dont get into converations, which might cause conflict.

[sallybb]

pdust, i don't think sith recognised it as a joke either, judging by his answer ;0)

[pdust]

i dunno ..he did a lol just like i did... thats usually a sign of joking isnt it? i usually lol or ;) ... anyway just in case....

dear sith.... i wasnt joking im Muslim but i was being daft that all the people in news would be screaming Islamic takeover of ab... its not all of em ...just a couple lol ... pixi :)

[LazyGun]

@Sith - Please point out where on answerbank you personally have been described as a fanatic or an idiot purely and solely as a consequence of asking a question....

[RATTER15]

The problem is sith, you are trying to argue about something you clearly know very little about, that does often make you look foolish.

Just give up trying to convert people and enjoy your life.

Incidentally, the Koran does suggest you kill everybody that does not follow your god, same as the bible does!!

[sallybb]

Ratter is your dog really taller than you or are you kneeling? Lovely breed, great big softies. Looks like he/she is whispering in your ear.

[vulcan]

sith123, can I assume from your silence that you don't have an answer ?

[sallybb]

Vulcan, think he is ignoring you, sith has started another thread about monsters.

[vulcan]

Thank you sallybb, does he believe in those as well ?

[pdust]

aww be careful shortstraw you will make your bin rusty

[sith123]

sorry guys, ok, i did know pdust was joking lol so if anyone thought i was serious, let me apoligise now :)
also vulcan, i agree religion may play an influence, but by no mean is it the only factor that contributes to it.
also ratter, i am not trying to convert anyone and i do have a lot of answers, however when i do answer people say i am going over the top.

[starone]

There are a lot of Muslims who use AnswerBank. There are also a lot of Christians, Jews etc. and of course Agnostics and Atheists (like me). Personally, I would never take anyone's belief away from them if they need it to get through life, so I cannot understand what the argument is about. Surely if you are adult enough and I suppose mature enough to make up your own mind you form ideas of your own and from them decide what you are going to believe. It is very nice, I think, for all people, whatever they believe to join here and exchange views.

[sith123]

i agree completely, but if one person starts arguing more abruptly i will to, but look at a lot of my posts and i always say nice arguing, no violence or foul language, sadly people do not follow :)
