Do you think GNHQ, you could possibly tell us why this thread was deleted.

Thanking you very kindly.

It may be a word, jingl, but it gives the wrong impression. And the wrong meaning. You can't always just shrug off what you post.

j04 Tue 19-Jun-12 22:47:53

And goodnight Cari.

Yawn

johanna Tue 19-Jun-12 22:47:42

No ana you are quite right. Muslims are not a race. It is a religion.
Same for the Jews. They are not a race either. Also a religion.

j04 Tue 19-Jun-12 22:47:01

Anagram sigh

It's a word.

I don't think the word faithist exists.

night night.

Nothing to do with implications of racism anywhere - but sermonising is against our forum rules. As we've said before - we're delighted to have all/any religions discussed and represented as long as the posts stick within our guidelines smile (which - of course - goes for all threads on all subjects)

johanna; that's the best laugh I've had all day!

Anagram Tue 19-Jun-12 22:42:44

Muslims are not a 'race', are they? confused

j04 Tue 19-Jun-12 22:42:41

It was harmless enough though.

I think. [shrug]

nanaej Tue 19-Jun-12 22:40:08

It read a bit like a Q'ranic 'Watchtower'.

j04 Tue 19-Jun-12 22:36:18

pardon?

johanna Tue 19-Jun-12 22:35:26

Well,
fuck me rigid
how exciting.

j04 Tue 19-Jun-12 22:34:09

Oh come on! hmm

Anagram Tue 19-Jun-12 22:32:46

Or, rather - Racist? confused

Anagram Tue 19-Jun-12 22:32:11

Racist? [puzzled]

j04 Tue 19-Jun-12 22:30:16

j04 Tue 19-Jun-12 22:29:19

I think they panicked. They thought it was going to go racist. grin

Annobel Tue 19-Jun-12 22:29:02

Well,it wasn't all that clear but it was sermonising about the 'truth' of the Q'ran by purporting to show that recent scientific discoveries were prefigured in the Q'ran. It wasn't opening a discussion and I don't think the OP could have coped with our scepticism.

Anagram Tue 19-Jun-12 22:28:16

johanna. toty posted some passages from the Koran. Some comments were made. Offence was apparently caused and the original post(s) were removed, and one thread completely removed.

johanna Tue 19-Jun-12 22:04:51

I still do not know what toty's thread was about?
Can anybody tell me?
Was it a sermon?
What does Gari mean. ? Please enlighten me?

johanna Tue 19-Jun-12 21:59:53

jeni Tue 19-Jun-12 21:27:53

Well!
I'm to bed!
And frankly
' I couldn't give a damm! '
Tomorrow is another day!

Goodnight all!
(I still haven't got a crescent moon)

Ariadne Tue 19-Jun-12 21:24:47

Now that, Cari, is something worth remembering for future reference! thank you.

Ella46 Tue 19-Jun-12 20:41:52

jeni Tue 19-Jun-12 20:39:48
