While it's not unheard of for that to happen, the most common cause for insults of this type is frustration at having to deal with common deflection tactics - though calling them 'tactics' is often to mistake obstinacy for strategy.

I would comment, but it's far too easy...
Obstinacy for strategy is something I could say many atheists on this forum engage in too. Artur's banning is just a reminder to me that my presence or any theist who is argumentative is not welcome. We are merely tolerated and while other people can be complete dicks and assholes to us, We need to hold back if we are to continue to have a voice here.
Artur...if you reading this, here is some advice....when you realize you are typing an insult....look for the backspace button....You'll save yourself a lot of grief.
