What bothers me is, some atheists are compelled to pop their head into a discussion about the aspects of God (or any other discussion that must assume God exists in order for that discussion to take place), and chime in to remind everyone there that he/she doesn't believe in God – that God does
not, in fact, exist, and thus the discussion is absolutely pointless.
For example: Let's say there's a thread titled, "Will there be lovemaking in the afterlife?" This could be quite an interesting discussion. But if you're an atheist and you don't believe in an afterlife, and if you cannot imagine there's an afterlife even for the sake of participating in this discussion, then you should be considerate and
stay out. There is no call for you to pop your head into the discussion and tell everyone there you don't believe any afterlife exists and therefor their discussion is pointless.
