Fanpop Question

Why do some people here on Fanpop vote all wrong on some polls or post answers and comments which make absolutely no sense at all?

Some answers and comments really make me sick! I found a poll where most people say the Catholics are not Christians at all!! I'm a Catholic and I'm also Christian!! How can anybody post such nonsense on Fanpop?! I find it insulting when people say we are not Christians!!! Of course we are Christians!! I'm also gay and I just found a poll where most other gay men say they all have homophobic best friends! How can anyone in his right mind be gay and have a homophobe for his best friend?! Homophobes hate all of us gay men, even those who supposed to be their friends. How can anybody ever be a friend with somebody who hates him?! Could you please explain it to me. I'm only 16, soon to be 17, still to me this is just another complete nonsense. Am I the only sane person left on Fanpop? This is a rhetorical question. You don't have to answer that. Just answer my original question: Why do people speak nonsense on Fanpop? Thank you for your NORMAL answers.

1. Fanpop is a place where anyone can express their opinion. Just because you disagree with it, doesn't mean they can't voice it, especially in the case of something like a poll - the whole purpose of a poll is to measure people's opinions.

2. Regarding the Christian/Catholic poll, some people are very narrow in their definition of Christian. They only count their own denomination.

3. Re the gay poll - maybe some voters didn't understand the question? Or people were spam voting? If a poll has only been voted on by a few people so far, then even one erroneous or spam vote can distort the results.
