Why do people stop responding

Whenever I get into a religious conversation with a atheist they always leave, why is that? Here is an example https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/222880428/0/0/1

    I notice this more often from religious folks when they can't substantiate their argument

    • [quote]evolution is, everything happens by chance[/quote] Why would somebody attempt to convince someone who so grossly misunderstands the very thing that they're arguing about? Perhaps if you spent some time to actually understand evolution and the decay of organic matter, rather than spouting flawed inductive leaps that only work to support your own belief system, people would be more apt to have a conversation.

          • Many reasons, but here are a few: 1. They are being assholes 2. They feel defeated 3. They don't want to waste their time 4. Others chime in so they don't have to speak anymore (related to 3) 5. "This one is machine and nerve, and has its mind concluded. This one is but flesh and faith, and is the more deluded."

          • Maybe there is more to life than being baited into talking in circles by narrow minded individuals? People have families,jobs,sleep and other responsibilities.You can't reasonably expect someone to continue a conversation forever,especially if it doesn't appear to be going anywhere.

            • Most atheists are too arrogant to admit they have no idea what the answer is. They'd much rather belittle everyone else to feed their superiority complexes.

              • Because arguing with a catholic is like arguing with a brick wall. You aren't going to get anywhere Honestly I respect you guys for your tenacity regarding having faith in your beliefs, it's admirable

              • Why can't people just coexist? Seriously, there's always that one guy who starts an argument. I'm an atheist but I have no problem with religion. Both sides should just suck their pride up and talk like civilized human beings.

              • It's because they realise they can't argue it but don't want to admit they're wrong.

              • Maybe they realize that arguing with someone who only has time to try to prove other people wrong about their beliefs instead of being productive isn't worth their time.

              • Maybe because you used a version of the watchmaker argument which is almost as weak as pascal's wager, and your opponent realized you weren't worth the effort to debate.
