Religious debating is quite popular in debate forums, Whether you be atheist, theist, some other skeptic or other belief....Why do you personally debate matters of religion in chat rooms? What are your motivations, intent, and goals that compels you to engage in religious debate ?

The mental hoops that the religious have to jump through interests me.
I find the 'my God's better than your God' thing to be entertaining at times.

You have been lucky not to have those that believe, tell you that you too...need to be 'saved.'
The religious often do not leave you alone, seek to change govt. and schooling according to [their] religious beliefs.
Religion deprived Europe 1000 years of science and [they] are still at it when looking at stem cell use and research, for starters.
To fight the good fight.
To be in the right.
To give bullies a fright.
To engender delight.
I wasn't here 10 minutes before I was told I was going to hell......:lol: true story
Well we are both in luck, there...is no hell.

It helps me organize my thoughts, because you have to spell out every tiny detail for atheists. If you don't dot an "i" they will complain about that. So my arguments become very careful. But occasionally one of them does have an interesting point, and that causes me to go more in depth with my research, to find good answers. I have learned a lot from about 20 years of debating atheists online.

Do you think atheists,in general, are more rude to theists than vice versa?

I think theists don't understand that they are being vastly rude when they do so.
I think 'some',emphasis on 'some', seem to think atheists are less moral simply because we reject religious claims.Some seem to just have an irrational disdain for non-believers for no valid reason. That I don't understand

It's not a matter of rejection, it's asking for proof of the claims. That seems to annoy some believers.

It is understandable in the way of dividing people into us and them. To put yourself into a group leads to a very intense sense of security. The more harsh your interactions with the others outside are the more the group makes sense.
