Is there a particular or any reason for them to anticipate? Why don't they create something to enrich there knowledge instead of criticizing or showing believer's down?
I wonder why the religious on this site keep on asking the same questions.
They anticipate a rational explanation for belief in things obviously imagined. Or maybe they anticipate an intelligent conversation on the reason anyone would be crazy enough to take the Bible literally.
I'm with you though. I see no reason to continue to anticipate either of those scenarios playing out. But, what can you do? Those atheists are just eternal optimists. You gotta love'em.

masochism:
any gratification gained from pain or deprivation inflicted or imposed on oneself;
a tendency to take pleasure from one's own suffering;

A good definition of insanity is to continue doing the same act over and over, while expecting a different result each time. The believers will not ( can not ) change the minds of the non-believers. And visa versa. So why is there so much time spent on the subject of God and...

I have noticed that an increasing number of people seem to have joined this site merely to spam religion on the forum. This would be okay if it was not for the fact that this is a forum for writers, not theists.I am all for having a community forum, but I believe it should be a community forum for...

Why are there so many Religion & Beliefs topics on the Forums?

When my brother Jerami told me about Hub Pages I thought this would be a great place for believers of God to debate their beliefs, but I was wrong. The forums end up off subject and a place for every one to start cutting, stabbing each other. most end up downing others of different faiths. as...
