moonlit Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 One side of the coin: Don't use that thread title. It's the biggest sweeping generalization I've seen since... uhh... yesterday... Other side of the coin: Yay. Religious recruitment chain mail. Quote
Dr Zaius Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Is it really any worse than the countless other chain emails sent out? At least it isn't trying to sell you anything or trick you in any way. I do find it strange that the admin of the forum would send it out though, doesn't seem like a very "adminy" thing to do. I'm in a forum with a bunch of sand sucking terrorists.. Perhaps you might like to consider rephrasing that as to avoid the inevitable offense you will cause. I'm not one to worry about being politcally correct but this is a very global community. I'm sure there would be a string of flames if anyone starting making absurd generalisations about Americans. One side of the coin: Don't use that thread title. It's the biggest sweeping generalization I've seen since... uhh... yesterday...Other side of the coin: Yay. Religious recruitment chain mail. Agreed, according to Wikipedia 81.5% of Indians are Hindu, so even if he is directing this at the entire Muslim population of India it's still not justifyable. Quote
moonlit Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Yup, I'm also not one to worry too much but this is actually a hugely offensive thread... Should I lock it? Quote
CaveMan Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 this reminded me of the saying "I hate the French, always stereotyping" Quote
take it take Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Allah the merciful and the compassionate will brutally punish those who stereotype. Pass this message along to others and you will receive $100 from Bill Gates. :twisted: Quote
Garda Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 i didn't know the Indians were big on the allah thing i thought it was more a muslim thing Quote
DeGrijze Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 i didn't know the Indians were big on the allah thingi thought it was more a muslim thing There Indians from India not North or south american Indians. Gerard Quote
VaKo Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Pakistan and kashmir is largely Muslim, which causes issues with India which is largely Hindu and Sikh. TBH I really don't get the point of this, its just your regular chain letter scam (the type thats been going about since the first guy who could wright taught the second guy to wright.) Quote
kickarse Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 He could have at LEAST used spell check, "aviod" "dont" "AMEEN"... that and his grammar is horrid. Quote
VaKo Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 I doubt english is his first language, but despite that he seems to have a better grasp of english than a lot of people here... Quote
moonlit Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 I doubt english is his first language, but despite that he seems to have a better grasp of english than a lot of people here... As much as I detest admitting it you're right VaKo... Quote
