Why do some folks get so negative and bitter towards people of faith, religion, and spirituality, in places on the net where it's discussed?

Because much like their matriarch, Madalyn Murray O'Hara, whose dismal demise her followers should take heed. Atheist, being Anti-Christ, fools and devoid of the Light of men, have no recompense or redeemer for their sinful deeds & thus by perverting the Truth (Jesus) are given over to a reprobate mind striking out in the hope that ridicule will somehow proselyte Christians into sharing atheist stagnant hollow existence little realizing they will stand before the final Judge after their death one day & give account for every sin committed while here on earth & be judged accordingly. Sam Harris (1967-) "Atheism is not a philosophy; it is not even a view of the world; it is simply a refusal to deny the obvious." --American neuroscientist Lee Stobel, legal editor for the Chicago Tribune, was a devout atheist who did his homework to support his atheist philosophy only to find hard evidence that Jesus is the Christ & Messiah and even wrote a fact based book titled “The Case for Christ”.

Know this there is always hope for anyone, including atheist, that God in His mercy would open their heart and mind to the Light that came into this world that they might have eternal life in heaven through Jesus the Christ. I beseech you that if you do not know Jesus the Christ of Nazareth, as your personal savior yet believe He is Lord, was born of the Virgin Mary, died for your sins, arose from the dead the third day & is now at the right hand of Almighty God, then say this simple pray to be saved and have eternal life in the Kingdom of God: Hear Oh Israel the Lord our God is one Lord and blessed is the Glory of the Lord from His place; Precious Jesus please forgive me my sins and come into my heart and life forever. Amen" Need help email me.

We don't, we get "wrathful" toward psychopaths who use that faith to lie under oath in court and violate state and federal law. I have tried to find out the cause of the dislike, - Psychopaths who use "faith" for their own agenda and feel they do not have to comply with civil law. And more often than not is based on fallacious reasoning, - Only to mental midgets such as yourself.

Do you notice this too? - Yes, I notice people like you make up lies like this all of the time. What can we do to help those, who get this way towards faith/religion/spirituality?

- How about if you read the bible, an inconvenient part I agree, that says - render unto Caesar what is Caesar's - and not violate civil law. So how can we help them understand that faith/religion/spirituality is here to stay - We know that, and the civil war was fought over that faith and fundies are trying to start another civil war for biblical/faith reasons.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
