One might theorise, based on the reactions to anti-organised-religion threads, that the reason religious people don't start religious threads is in fact because they don't want to be challenged. Most find it very emotionally challenging (and therefore get angry), because most have many complex emotions wrapped up in / repressed by faith. In my opinion, of course.

Or simply they don't need to have their religion/faith validated by a forum, just as plenty of atheists don't need to be validated either?
Let's face it, 90% of religion based topics on this forum is the OP asking for anyone who agrees with them (one way or the other) to come and convince them they are right.
