Religion - Other
Why must the non-religious refer to themselves as intellectually superior to us and be so insulting on these polls?
They accuse us of worshiping and imaginary being. They insult and name call. WTF is their problem?

I can't say exactly why the individuals on SH do this.
That being said, To read reading through the the articles on the major atheist websites like Dawkins, Hitchens and the like is like wading through a cesspool of arrogance. The disdain they have for anything and anyone religious is quite a public and often a venemous display.
A quick read through some of their work will tell you where most of the anti-religious hate comes from - the Clergy of the Church of Atheism. -

Because they are jerks....Not all atheists are that way. Just the jerks. We have them on the religious side of the fence too (unfortunately....lol).
The sheeple word is nasty. I would never call an atheist anything but atheist and only if they define themselves that way first. -
It's nasty and funny at the same time!
Try to insult me for following my Shepherd. You can't.....lol! I willingly follow Him and His teaching.
But to call somebody sheep because you believe differently says more about the name-caller. Arrogance, belittling, treating others as inferior for believing differently does not speak well of the name callers character or integrity. -

Because I am secure in my own skin, it doesn't bother me. I am all for them having whatever opinion they wish to have and will live a life that I hope will be a beacon to others.
Convincing others is so multi faceted it need not be a conflict discussion or pitched battle. My own son was an influence to me and raising him alone we both grew up together in so many ways. It was his quiet determination that eventually got me to quit smoking, no arguements, no struggle, just gentle persuasion. -

Hey i'm non-religious but I do no such thing. People can believe what they want to as long as they don't try to force it on me. If they do I'll force mine back at them. Ironicly though i've only had it happen a very very small number of times on sodahead, and all the people who have attempted it failed miserably and gave up trying after i proved their lack of knowledge of their own religion. "I have read the bible, and studied quite a few religions ^_^" -

Actually, I'm a non believer, and have basically been called a dumb ass time and time again by believers.I say to each his own. If you believe in god, that's great, if you don't that's great, too.
