[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To answer the original question:

[b]It's not an atheist thing or a Christian thing.  It's a people thing. [/b] Some people simply want to share what they believe to be the truth with others so they too can enjoy the wonderful life one is living within their belief system.

Others, on the other hand, are more private about their religious or nonreligious beliefs.

Seems like you have simply run into some atheists who would like to share with you.  Not unusual.  One runs into Christians with the same idea all the time.[/quote]

To some extent.

But some religions actively encourage their believers to proselytize.

Is it a more personal thing with atheists who insult believers, even believers who aren’t proselytizing? What motivates an atheist to insult believers who say, just having a conversation about what they’d do if they were God? It definitely seems aimed at changing minds, at moving people away from religion. [/quote]

Many people like to be snarky on the internets. That's not proselytizing.

[b]But it is trying to change minds[/b]. And don’t whine when your offensive snark gets deleted. [/quote]

Not necessarily.  Maybe if you aren't very sure of yourself?[/quote]
