Just curious what the general sentiment is towards theists being on this forum.
 
The poll question is this: Do you generally enjoy theists being on this forum?


Given that that is a general question about theists who are on the forum, rather than a theoretical question about idealized situations involving theists, my answer is "no."  I do not generally enjoy theists being on this forum.

If you answer NO, do you not enjoy it because  you can't stand anyone who does not share your views regarding the existence of God, even if they don't talk about it?


No, that is not it.

Yes, in part.  It is also the way they talk about their silly beliefs, not just that they have silly beliefs.

No.  If everyone agreed about everything, there would be little to talk about.  But I can certainly understand someone wanting a theist-free environment, as many are constantly surrounded by theists in their real lives and could use a respite.

Thanks everyone! Looking forward to seeing your answers.


Most theists here (or, at least, most of the ones I have noticed) are irrational and argue fallaciously.  And many are conceited, arrogant, and obnoxious while they are spewing forth nonsense.  I do not find those to be attractive qualities.  I don't find those to be attractive qualities in atheists, either, but they seem more common qualities of theists than atheists (while still being more than common enough among atheists).
