The posts are never productive and are never going to go anywhere. The posts only purposes are to create strife with the people who are different from himself.
P.S. You are not a troll that is a common mistake. If your intent is what I have theorized then you are an internet gadfly.

Wow! Let me guess ... you suspect we did not actually go to the moon and the government planned 9/11 ?
My MO is typical of someone new to a forum. Ask a lot of questions, learn about the topics being discussed, and then as time goes on ask less questions and provide more answers. I apologize if my questions make people uncomfortable.
Your regilion analogy is perfect. Thank you for bringing it up. What use is a Christian if his belief is so unrooted a few questions can topple their beliefs? If your beliefs are founded on knowlege and rooted in sound principles of logic you can not only answer atheist questions but potentially save them. In otherwords, if your beliefs are never tested how good are they? In fact the Bible is filled with stories of believers being tested.
As for my posts, check out my butter vs margarine topic. Anyone who reads that will find out that butter is still better for you than these new and improved margarines and why. I dug around the internet but had trouble dispelling the claims of margarine manufacturers. Posted up the question and two posters here unlocked the reality for me. Now everyone who read that post is a little smarter. Should someone ask them why they are buying butter in a grocery store they can tell them that butter is healthier and WHY. In your world apparently it would be better for them just to say ... "My philosphy is butter is better. I read it in a book and because I liked the title of the book I'm eating butter"
My philosphy is to know the WHYs. I used to drive my mother crazy. Why. Why. Why. You want to just believe than go ahead. I want to know WHY. If it ruffles a few feathers tough shit. Now go stick your head back in the dirt where it belongs.
