Because most of the vocal minority on this site, and the internet as a whole, are condescending Atheists. I'm a proud Catholic that is tolerable of others' beliefs. Hell, a good number of my friends are either Atheist or Agnostic. I just can't stand when these people that I [i]try[/i] to respect feel the need to make fun of everyone else who don't see things their way. They are just hypocrites, and I try to avoid them. The guy who made the thread didn't deserve the bashing that he got, and those people know it. All I can say is that karma's a bitch, and the ones that did make fun of him and his thread will have something coming to them fairly soon.
