This forces an unnatural state of discussion. Now everyone tries to justify why they SHOULD believe in God, rather than why they DO.
1) If you post in a thread or join a conversation where one person has made their opinion clear, it is quite unnatural to contribute your opinion without also (in some form or another) stating whether you agree or disagree with the original position.
2) If you post in a thread or join a conversation where one person has NOT made their opinion clear, it is quite natural to contribute your opinion without being agreeable or disagreeable. You can simply your position.
That's what's "so hard." You seem to prefer 1 and I prefer 2. And it seems the OP does too, or he wouldn't complain when mods shut down conversations of type 2.
