i've said it before and i'll say it again: i have no problem with religious humor. but bashing is uncool.
i frequently come across posters (and certain mods) who not only post untrue garbage about religions but also bash them for no reasons, in threads they don't belong. when these "jokes" come from people who show up on the religion thread and openly display their disdain for religion then these "jokes" stop being funny.
that becomes worse when "intellectual" individuals say they are only saying the truth and that its your own fault for being offended. i call bullshite. randomly coming to threads and bashing religions when its not involved in a thread is not only stupid but also against forum rules, and so is offending people based on their religion. not to mention being pure a55holelry. if anyone's willing to actually debate certain issues then that's what the religon thread is for. but lots of them don't (dare i say, they cant?).
certain "intellectual" people also show up on the religion forums and bash religion left and right, flame people following these religions and before you know it, your opinions don't matter because you believe in god and believing in god is not intellectual. since when did being intellectual have anything to do with your religion? when did a select group get together and decide who is and who isn't intellectual? and when exactly did atheism/agnosticism certify this intelectual standard anyway?
to me atheism/agnosticism today is starting to head down the rock n roll path: what was an intellectual, individualistic stand that's reduced to a bunch of 40-year-old man childs whining about their highschool breakups. and i guess that was only natural, because all rebellions end up becoming what they were suppsoed to rebel against.
lots of atheism/agnosticism on these forums are about as close-minded, hateful and immature as those "evil" christians and muslims they love to condemn.
Offending people based on their religion is in no way against forum rules, because being offended does not necessarily imply you were flamed. All sorts of things that people hold dear get attacked here- people's political beliefs, people's tastes in art, music, films and literature, people's attitude to life...
For many people, some or all of these things are just as important to them as any religious view. So long as it is not a pure flame, having your beliefs attacked is part of life here as it is anywhere. There is no special exception for a relgiious belief.

wow....at this rate i don't even have to say anything. all i have to do is point at you and say "stop doing what she's doing".
thanx for the free demonstration
i don't know what your issue is with muslims, but you need to stop putting words in my mouth. i'm right here most of the time defending christianity. its not alright to bash any religion, which in case you can't read, is the point of this thread to begin with.
nice to see you're still choking on your childish hate.
they shouldn't be bashed. that's the point.
and, wow, more islam bashing...how "intellectual".
once again, bashing all religions is bad. that's why i made this thread. not to mention that this is even more of your dellusional rambling because:
1) i'm not saying anything about jews or christians or hindus (and why stop here) zorastians, hoppis, buddhists, janists etc etc.
2) my point is that bashing religions is bad. period.
3) i'm not singling out religions here. YOU are.
and hindus? lolwat? you gotta be kidding me!
my best friend's a hindu, genius, we grew up together. his sister practically calls me brother. heck her husband calls me brother
see, the difference between you and me (besides the fact that you're rude and obnoxious and an insult to everything you're supposed to be as a mod) i don't discriminate between people. and i don't put words in their mouth. and i don't go and post lies about religions and then spew gibberish insults at people when they prove me wrong with facts. oh, and i can read without letting my baseless hate cloud my eyes. watching all this is...sad.
I am attacking her? with all due respect but:
1) she's being childish and spiteful
2) she's insulting my religion (just asked a few mods who said that its agains the rules btw)
3) she's insulting my religion needlessly and in inappropriate threads
4) she's putting words in my mouth
5) she's accusing me of saying things that i'm not saying
how are these anythng but an insult to being a mod? and this isn't the first tme i'm asking her to get her act together. if more proof is required i'll be glad to give it. in fact, just check your pm and watch the "prequels".
I have not at any rate insulted you personally, nor have I insulted a group of people. I was critical against religion, as I am with plently of others. None are excluded.
It is MY opinion, and if you don't agree, you can debate without actually insulting me personally, which you have done repeatedly.
So, take this as your warning. You have been warned numerous times for other mod bashing, member bashing and trolling before.
I am warning you now again. Continue to personally insult me or anyone else on the boards, and you're banned.

Asusming any of what you say is true, you could have tried reporting it, talking to a mod about it, or in the last resort PMing Raz.
Instead you have made a thred which is basially a thinly veiled attack on a mod, and then made an absolute and uncontestable direct attack on a mod which would be grounds enough for me to ban you immediately. So do not expect me to be sympathetic.

do you want me to post all your the times you have? do you honestly think that you are not insulting a group of people when you call their prophet a pedophile?
seriously.
well, you're doing it in threads where they don't belong. not to mention how you post someting that is untrue and then turn into some bizarre rant when i proved you wrong. in fact, the first thing you did when i posted the hadith was call muhammed a pedophile, totally ignored all the other hadiths and went on a rant against arabs? and you did it despite me asking you not to. i never was rude to you at any point.
i have a lot of opinions about you and people like you but i kept them to myself because it was uncalled for. this whole problem has arisen because you were out of line. don't play the victim.
absurd....
1) spoken to several mods about it and posters, didn't want to report it because i honestly thought she was drunk at the time
2) she's playing victm
3) this thread wasn't aimed at her AT ALL and i'd love to see proof that it is
4) she's guilty of many of the accusations in this very thread. read over my post and tell me where i singled out jews or hindus or christians
5) already asked other mods if bashing religion is acceptable and they said no, no.
6) please tell me where i'm "personally attacking" her. i called her childish and silly. apparently that's unacceptable but bashing religions in random threads, posting untrue info about religions, putting words in posters' mouths and ranting is?
Sado... you are insulting the intelligence of everyone here by claiming you have niot personally attacked her. Just read your darn post again. You are stretching my patience very thin here, to the point where I begin to suspect that your provocation is deliberate.
You DID attack her. That is not up for debate. It was the wrong thing to do- that is what I am telling you. Carry on like this and it is a definite ban. So stop.

did you read that pm? look over that, please.
and, i've already said it before: this thread was an open discussion. this had and has nothing to do with her. and my reply to her (if you read that pm i sent you) had some references to her antics in the "french ban burkini thread" which happened very, very recently. not the ones here.
like i said, read over the pm. you know, phuck it, here i'll just post here for everyone to see:
seriously, what is the message you're giving out here:
you can insult someone's religion in threads where they don't belong and step out of line and come up with obnoxious rants as replies to sound arguments and make sweeping generalizations of a particular race but if you say someone's beng immature and stupid we'll band you?

I simply don't believe you about the thread- it was clearly made as an atatck on her, and your references to mods makes that clear. Like I say, when you made that attack on Lil, yuou lost both your sympathy and my inclination to believe anything you say.

i don't want your sympathy. keep it.
i do, however, want you to read pm i sent you...which i even posted here for you to see because clearly you aren't.
cleary made as an attack on her? okay so "i frequently come across posters (and certain mods) who not only post untrue garbage about religions but also bash them for no reasons" is the proof that this threads entire sole purpose is to bash lil? and yet in the FOUR paragraphs following it make no reference to her at all. better still, i already and very clearly mentioned other posters who are inclined to flame and bash religions for no reason.
interesting how one line has more weightage than FOUR paragraphs.
