I'm not going to qoute the whole thing. I will simply say that our missionaries are instructed to go away if told to and that free will is an essential beleif of my religeon and that I will never force my beleif's on anyone, simply state them and disagree with what I beleive are people's misconceptions. If you tell me to never bother you with my religeos beleif's again, I will, to the best of my memory, never bother you with my religeos beleif's again. A forced conVersion means nothing.

We've had off topic threads before that have been heated, still most is read before an answer is written and sometimes it's a debate instead of just stubbornly pointing out one's opinions, and for us who just read the thread it's interesting.

I don't think shrapnel should go in and participate in a thread and then delete it if they aren't happy with the content as long as it's not open racistic or plain stupid.
(but yes, after reading through this thread I too can see that it has touched upon both those criterias And perhaps this particular thread is closing in on the deletion point...)

We at the SEIV forum have traveld the OT road before and with much more heat. All the people that went on this road are still here and still talking to one another so I see no need to cut this one road short.

Freduk I see you're from the netherlands. Next time you're in Amsterdam I suggest spending a few hours in the Anne Frank Museum- Hopefully that will be enough to make you think twice about taking action sections of your community based on their religion.

Freduk, watch your Tongue, such words give a despectable image of our community.
I'm going to ask for the deletion of your post.

It sounds possible to me he was saying >racist, sexist< muslims should be taken action against. While I think this is counter-productive and wrong, perhaps he should be given the benifit of the doubt and the opportunity to explain.
