I personally think some of the comments on this site can get pretty ridiculous at times, more importantly, they can utterly obliterate an otherwise important message. However, you know what is said about opinions and how they are like a particular body part (everybody’s got one, and they all stink). The thing I have seen that truly ruins credibility is when atheists/agnostics/whatever pontificate about the Bible, yet they don’t believe in it in the first place.

True faith does not disallow you to question your beliefs.
Right, that is the problem. From my perspective to fully mature as a thinking human being it is necessary to deeply explore whether everything one thinks and believes is wrong.
Correct, examining one's beliefs whether spiritual or political is important. If you cannot defend your own opinions to yourself how can you defend them to anyone else. I welcome discussions with those that disagree with me whether they be leftists or atheists.
Our country would be a better place if people could have discussions without anger and frustration. The issue with that is, many many people have emotional attachments to their beliefs and the emotions often times outweigh facts.
That being said, faith is something a little different. Faith does not need to be backed up with facts/science.
The anger you refer to is intentionally added by subverters. The CFR was created in 1921, and everyone was taught in school to behave irrationally as you describe, due to their influence.
Some of just rebel against their agenda :)
Yes! More emphatically, Jesus teaches us to do this, repeatedly.
