Why do non-religious and non-spiritual people come to this section and answer questions?

I feel they have a right to give their point of view.The topic is for everyone,even non-religous or non-spiritual people.

the answers (and questions) in the religous section are more straight forward. unlike much moronic , stupid questions and answers contained in other yahoo categories. says a lot for the believers out there if i do say so myself.

I am thinking that it may be because most users on the site are Christian, and Hindu questions aren't as "popular."  So maybe people just go with the flow.  I am a Hindu but I do ask many Christian questions just because I figure most people here are Christian, and if I ask them a question, then I get to hear their insights.  I like hearing from people of all different backgrounds and religious convictions.

It's probably because they are simular to you, are curious about the same questions, or think they have the answers since they are all in the same thought pattern.. I don't think any ONE person is anwering everything,... that would be impossible.

its kinda interesting seeing what other ppl write. its also natural of humans to try to find validation and importance of their existence or somethin like that so when ppl answer, it makes them feel good.

Why are you trying to sow dissent here?  There are people on here trying to keep it less like a battlefield and more like a place for important questions on faith, and questions like this don't help.

I am wondering why those people answer your question and similar ones. they are exited about these topic ,I think. they try to look like they are not. well , i can't answer that neither.

There are  people on here who are not really looking for answers. They are looking for other opinions on a topic.\n\nThen there are those who want to make people mad. Generally along a political or religious line.\n\nThen there are kids who are looking for a easy answer to homework questions.\n\nThen there are those who are really looking for an answer. The bad news is they don't really know if the person who gives the answer knows a damn thing. The good news is they will get a variety of answers and they don't have to use any particular one.

Some people are here to entertain themselves. Some people are in it for the points, I guess. (Why else would someone answer "I don't know"?) Maybe one of your questions will get picked as a featured question. Then you will get more thoughtful answers. In the meantime, share your own knowledge and help to enhance the intellectual level of this site!

When you come to this site, you have to come knowing that all sorts of people will come and give advice.  There are people giving answers that are not serious about their answers, some really are ignorant and unlearned, the worst are the ones who are racist and morally wrong.  When you get the answers, just disregard the bad ones and consider the good ones.  This is really what makes this site fun, at least sometimes.

apparently they think that is the way of it..  why else would they constantly be here posting questions that are obviously intended to do nothing more than 'stir the religious waters'\ni have no problem whatsoever with them choosing to believe that there is no god.  i just wish they would quit trying to fight about it.  it's not their beliefs that make me dislike them.  it's what they do with their beliefs.

Maybe because Spirituality and Religion are not meant to be together?  Looks like "religious" folk are not so open to other people opinion while "spiritual" people are willing to talk to anyone.

I agree totally they are here to be cynical without license and to mock and to gain points, some people who ask questions in this category are in need of guidance of any kind and ask whatever is troubling them, it's like praying when times are hard, people should be a little kinder on here I think.

haha I asked the same question but about fundalmental christians.  For someone trying to figure out my own sprituality I find both sides rather annoying and superfical.  I think the reason both Atheists and Fundalmentals are on here so much is because their point of view is very simple to give a easy answer.  Beleive and don't question for the fundalmentals and don't beleive at all for the Atheists.  To answer many of the deep questions posted on here a lot of thought has to go into those answers.  Even with lots of thought, a good answer is hard to communicate.  Whole books have been written to answer some of these questions.  So it only appears to be narrow minded people in the population but in fact its just easier for them to give their narrow minded answers because to them everything is black and white

I don't understand your question!\n\nok, sorry.  No, I know what you mean.  Some people think Yahoo Answers is a forum for converting people to their religions.  And they clutter the answers space with their little spiels that really have nothing to do with the question asked.\n\nThe one that always gets me is when people answer simply, "I don't know."  How dumb!  If you don't know then why "answer"?!  Of course, I know the reason is 2 points.

Shouldn't this be in the Religion/Spirituality section??
