…called somebody’s beliefs ‘sihtty’ on this bulletin board…?
Let me elucidate:
“Your belief’s are sihtty…”
If I said that to another member whose ideologies my ignorance, my lack of tolerance and me lack of understanding prevented me from respecting, what would happen?
What is the worst case scenario?

That's it?
My friend Don...There is something very wrong going on in GS...People who complained about offensive posters were banned yet the offenders were allowed to stay...
So you are saying, that were I to call somebody's beliefs as 'sihtty', and that person complained to you, would you ban that person?
Think about what's going on...Small matter, but it'll make you greater in the long run InshAllah...
What's going on is that someone called my beliefs 'sihtty', and now, judging by your reply, I am afraid that if I complain to anyone about it, I might be banned too...Like AQ, Ata, SalmanNY e.t.c...
So basically, anyone is welcome to call my faith and beliefs 'sihtty'...No one will do anything about it...
Someone calling your beliefs sihtty, Lajo, is an improvement over calling it a dumpster of monkey siht mixed with camel dung. Was the offender called just ‘your’ beliefs sihtty or was it a statement for beliefs of ‘everyone’? The beliefs that make someone think of white women as whores are fairly sihtty in my opinion. So you should be happy about someone correcting your misconception about civilized people.
You can call Islam whatever you want Madhanee, the point will remain that it was, is and will remain the truth till eternity…You are not the first person to call it ‘sihtty’ and you will not be the last…
As for mixing monkey siht and camel dung is concerned, it’s not nice to talk about your gods this way…See? I respect your religion…I even told you not to insult your gods…Only a Muslim can show this much respect and tolerance for other’s beliefs…Despite the fact you hate Muslims so much…
Sihthead, where did I call Islam sihtty? You are still under the impression that calling white women whore is something that Islam is about. I don’t think Islam is about that. Do you think it it?
Madhanee…Ignorance appears so brilliantly upon the visage and tongues of those who are ill-tempered and of little knowledge…Where did I call any white women whore? In any post?
And if you didn’t call Islam ‘sihtty’, do you believe I am a Hindu?
Grow up a little and smell enlightenment…
You see talking to you is like trying to explain cosmos to a 2 year old. So you mean to say that when you made the statement for women sleeping around, did you mean to imply Hijabi Nimazi women? Sorry I misunderstood you, I thought that was a reference to white women. I apologize.
No need to apologize for one’s ignorance Madhanee…If you started to apologize for all the times you’ve assumed wrong in ignorance on GupShup, this post will go to page 72 ( The number of Hoors that I will get in Aakhira, InshAllah) and the posts will be all yours…
I forgive your ignorance, for you know not what you do or say…
Peace…
Guys, I am sure you can take this little argument of yours to a more appropriate place.

I didn't mention anything about banning. And no one is banned here for complaining, so get that out of your system as well. People were banned for a lot of other stupid things they did, which they conveniently ignore and try to hide behind a facade of Islam and act like a martyr. I am sorry, that doesn't work here. If you make a mistake, you have to own up to it and take responsibility and accept the consequences. There are many people in Religion forum who have arguments, some even with the mods or Admins... but none of them is given any warnings, let alone banned. This is a place to have a discussion and we can't have only one-way discussions. Disagreement is good. Only we expect members to debate in a mature manner and take snide remarks in their stride and focus on the point.
Now, if you have something specific to say, I will like to know. If its a specific post that irked you, contact that forum's moderator. If it is about Religion forum I am more than pleased to get a PM from you with specific post reference and your comments. I will like it much better than having to read about it in Feedback forum with a number of irrelevant posts thrown around it.
