off-topic but why is swearing banned on this forum? surely thats not preaching tolerance?

I'm 24, if I want to say **** then why the **** shouldn't I? lol

I have a friend who lives in Qatar, and during their fasting times she can't been seen outside with food or she could be put to death (not sure how true that is) but she's white and english, why the hell should she live by their rules?

You're posting on a shops forum. A shops forum would generally attract customers. Customers of any age.
 
oh it will happen next time :). How can christians come in here and say anything about us when there son of god got owned by three nails on a cross.

You realise that you are being just as offensive to others as you claim they to you.

You cannot claim some kind of moral high ground while rolling around in the same mud.
 
So its ok for them to come in and derail this thread and its not ok for me to do it now? One rule for them and one rule for me? dont think so.

Anyone has the right to question whatever they wish. But trolling isnt allowed and neither are insults. You've made promises to troll later in the year, intentionally derailing a thread. Thats just not wise

It's a forum where people by definition will discuss things and often disagree. There's not much excuse for being aggressive and looking to start a flame fest by promising to troll any non islamic threads.

If you want people to just agree with you and take your religious point of views there are other forums that might suit you better.
 
GD, where you can argue about everything from fireworks to organised religion :D Calm down dears, and have a cup of tea. All religions come from other religions, just read any religion book, there are massive similarities. That's why I always think its a bit silly they always argue, they have the same myths and legends. A lot of the bible comes from 'pagan' myths, moulded into a religious form. People all worship the same God, they just don't want to admit it and then they bicker :p Silly men
 
See this is what I've never understood, the devil offered Jesus food, the Devil tried to dissuade a man from killing his son, the devil got eve to eat an apple because, you know, it's an apple and was an utterly contrived test by god yet we all call HIM the bad guy...

By the way, no offence meant to people of any religion, believe whatever it is you like, I'm just here to point out a few reasons why I consider it so much waffle.

see thats fine.. if you ask questions in a good manner then no religious person should get offended but the other poster that riled up billythekid, did so in a bad way.

actually we dont believe it was apple, it was a grain.. but that aside..
1. but it wasnt just a simple/contrived test though was it, it was because he failed the test, we are on this earth
2. if devil hadnt persuaded him then we would be living in heaven

but forgive me, i dont see the point you are trying to make? Devil always takes you away from the God, makes you do evil things, if you want to call someone who does that GOOD.. by all means do..

oops.. thread derailed...

but back on TOPIC:

EID mubarak to everyone...
 
These threads always bring out the forums true colours.

Makes me sad.

Too many intolerant people and too many people taking the slightest offence to the point that they make themselves look stupid.


Anywaaaay, عید مُبارک


edit; oh and I'm an atheist if you were wondering.

whats the difference between me promising to troll a thread in the future and them trolling one now? none what so ever.
 
Hmm an observation from me, I know quite a few Muslims and they are very nice people yet just about every Muslim I see on the internet ends up being very rude and aggressive.

In any case happy eid buddy
 
I'd sell my soul for a bacon sandwich.....

I think I just disproved Christianity as no Devil turned up with a contract in one hand and a bacon sandwich in the other.

This forum should adopt the Office politics policy, do not discuss religion or politics, that would stop the trolling (if thats what you want to call it) and general arguing

come on man.. CALM down.. it EID TODAY.. do you know what eid teaches us? be patient...

Prophet Abraham showed patience, in fact all Prophets have showed patience.. and look at us? try to ignore people who rile you up..
 
oh it will happen next time :).

No, it won't, and if it does then the posts won't be staying around for long.

It's in the FAQ that you're not allowed to troll, occasionally it's not easy to determine what constitutes trolling but when you've given advance notice of your intentions about a petty squabble then it becomes rather more obvious. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect that people will respect others and have a bit of respect for their beliefs.

And in answer to your subsequent question - no it's not one rule for "them" and one rule for you. I'd like to see a bit more respect shown for peoples beliefs regardless, nothing should be beyond criticism but there's times and places where it is more appropriate than others.

Because the forum is nominally a family friendly one and sometimes it's just nice not to have to see swearing every couple of posts.
 
I can never understand why different religions are tolerant of each other, when so much of what they believe in is the same! *shrugs* Maybe because I am female and probably technically classed as 'agnostic' or 'pagan' even. I am tolerant of all religions, unless they start shoving it down my throat, but I don't like any opinions of others shoved down my throat :D
 
Why would Christians be persuaded by a sandwich they can buy in any cafe?

Well I'm at work, so I can't get one right at this moment in time. Does this mean next time I eat a bacon sandwich the Devil's going to turn up?

I could have said Ferrari

Maybe it is a female thing... I don't see the point in arguing religion either. Nothing is ever going to come of it! I also hate being preached to, it's like telling me my favourite colour is wrong. I really like turquoise dammit! :mad:

Ok, if it won't happen then why are you allowing it in this thread.

Post #6

basically every post mollymoo has made in this thread.

And if they aint removed, or he aint suspended then i will troll in the future christmas/jew threads. The way im seeing it is theres been no punishment or warning from you to them but anything i say you want to jump on it.
 
I am happy for anybody to believe whatever they like. However, I'm not happy with things such as 'thighing' (please google if you want more info) - a Muslim practice which I find disgusting.

Eid Mubarak, however, to those who don't follow such practices.
