some polarity against Christianity is understandable because it is still run in small sectors and to an extent "at large" in the ways that it used to be when it annihilated science and did a lot of heinous things

but a lot of it that i've noted is just teenage foolhardiness

I didn't know that...
And I don't think its entirely true.

First of all, there are other nuances of people (regarding their beliefs or ideologies) from Christians to defenders of science and rationality. There are those who want/try to keep a balance between those two, there are Buddhists, new agers, people who are atheists but don't necessarily sustain science, Muslims and the list could go on.
And each of them, from my own observations can become aggressive when contradicted.
So my suspicion is it's their own personal constructs (personality) which makes them behave like that rather than the ideologies they sustain. Even though in some cases, the type of anger they manifest can relate to their life style they chose.

Also, what I've noticed and I think it's important to point out is that some Christians don't become so angry and defensive is because they seem to be guided by the ancestral principle of "turning the other cheek", which doesn't come from a high sense of awareness or spirituality but from a messianic complex they developed. :shrug:

also those who are so attached to rationality, that their behavior in turn becomes irrational.

Very few people on these web forums are Christians and that's why very few Christians get angry.:tongue::monkeydance::tongue:

This subject interests me mainly because I have been scared away from these forums before just because it seems so male-dominated and aggresive here. Sometimes when I read threads visions of men sword fighting with their genitalia run through my head.

I think young male Christians can be just as intolerant...

My guess is it's all that testosterone seething though them young male bodies (younger men tend to have more, no?)

Higher testosterone levels = higher desire for dominance

An interesting article Scientific American told me so:

http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?articleID=7DE01F25-E7F2-99DF-30D2199FCD555450

Yeah, it seems kind of obvious, but as a women, it's nice to keep in mind when occasionally baffled by male behavior.
