Why do people who have no faith have this need to come in and interupt a well intentioned thread to those who have faith in a higher power? Just be curteous to those who practice a faith and move on.

You should welcome their need to be curious...they might learn something. Those with faith should not live in glass houses. Questions are great...that means people are curious.
Apathy and indifference is the worst. Actually, when someone shows anger towards a faith...they are closer to crossing over than not.

At least in being disruptive on a prayer thread, the disruptors give believers specific names to add to their prayer lists.

Hugs!

Sometimes, maybe those people of "no faith" are looking for answers. A kind word, a soft voice, just might be a seed sowed in the heart of the enquirer.

I agree!!

But; it seems that the ones who don't believe have to stir up the ones who do.

It is their way of trying to justify their lack of religious belief, because we choose to blindly believe in GOD'S will for his people. We don't always have the answers, but GOD does.

I've been courteous for quite some time now, and continue to be when addressed with decency and respect. allowing for the possibility of a god, I think it's rather selfish and presumptuous to ask for his/her/its intervention in specific matters such as this.
