I know that I'll probably be downvoted again, but nevertheless.

This is precisely the wrong way to start off a post like this, a very passive-aggressive tone.

Sorry, but I don't feel that I have this freedom on LW. And I feel people moralize here especially using the downvote function.

Are you certain that it isn't simply the tone of your posts?

So when just asking the most basic rationality question (why do you believe what you believe) and presenting evidence that contradicts a point is downvoted I don't feel that LW is about rationality as much as others like to believe. And I also feel that basic elements of politeness are missing and yes, I feel like I have to walk on eggs.

Also bitterness. I think that you would benefit a lot by rephrasing your questions in a less confrontational manner.

Eliezer, could you explain how you arrived at the conclusion that this particular believe is visibly insane?

could have become

Eliezer, I don't understand how you arrived at this conclusion, could you explain the reasoning behind it?

Soften up your posts.

I never downvote, as I think it's counterproductive. Others don't agree, but that is their right. Taking it personally is not the right approach.

Edit - please disregard this post
