except - you are actually trying to be a bully.

You are getting exactly what you intended to get here Confused 


Now you can cry to your other xian bigot buddies on how terrible you were treated here when you wouldn’t answer simple yes or no questions. 

Do you support a woman’s right to abortion?  Yes or no

Do you support gay weddings? Yes or no

I do find it rude when people refuse to answer direct questions. That's another very common thing around here.

True.
But you should answer anyway to avoid the appearance of dissimulation and avoidance.

It's good to know that theists feel empowered to tell atheists what is and is not a genuine or searching question..though that does make one wonder why the theist is disturbed when atheists suggest the same of his own.

Genuine for me but rude for thee?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

whether you answer or not, the effect is that it'll get worked into the game.
