Angry I'm not happy about this!

Okay I was talking to ED about the people on ZU who are blastfomus and don't get banned for it,
if someone was insulting a Muslim or a Jew they would get banned but what about the people that mock christianity? why is it okay for them to do it?

Re: I'm not happy about this!

Do you have any examples of such "blasphemy"?

For someone acting so self righteous on this topic, I would have though you would spell Christ right.

They are only screen names, not actual attacks on Christianity at all.
Is this your only concern?
If so, there's nothing to discuss.

Also - since this is more a gerneric question regarding ZU members rather than anything else, I'll move it to FSQ.

Yeah, I agree with you. The whole world is that way. People are accused of terrible things if saying even a small snide remark about Muslims. Christians can't even say Jesus or pray in public. They'll get in trouble. And they are openly mocked on television and in movies. The media hates Christians. For what reason? I have no idea.

On a serious note, I find both of those members to be extremely funny and full of win. What's life if you can't laugh at yourself every once in a while?

Actually, I'm a strict Greek Orthodox Christian.
It's as close to the original religion of Christianity as you can get - I have to attend church every Sunday, and stay for the entire four hour Litergy, and make sure that I pay a visit to the Church at least once during the week, not including Sunday.

I seriously doubt that your are as devout a Christian as me.

I am practical - not everyone in the world will conform to your opinions and views, so it's naive and foolish to take offense at such trivial things as you have done.

Should the names have been "GODISASICK****" and whatnot, then the user would be taken into consideration but to make a mountain out of a molehill for what is nothing but a whimsical thing is just silly.

Re: I'm not happy about this!

Deal with it. I'm a Christian, but this does not bother me. Most likely 'God' thinks it his username is funny, and makes little jokes about it. Yes, we think that is wrong, but is it really that important to make a big deal out of it? Obviously 'God' does not think it is wrong, but that is his problem.

Re: I'm not happy about this!

And also why is it okay for people to mock christianity but if we mock muslim or anyother religion it's off to prison? I just find it unfair thats all.

You obviously have no sense of humor.

SD speaks the truth.

You don't go to prison for mocking Muslims....

Look at South Park. That show makes a jew joke or a middle-eastern joke every ten seconds. They aren't exactly in jail, you know.

Re: I'm not happy about this!

I'm a Christian, and that really doesn't bother me that much (lego God). I mean, if they were really bashing him, then I could understand. Not that I think it's fine. Because I don't. But I'm not going to make it a bigger deal than it is. *shrugs* For now, I'm staying out of this.

Well said. The exact points I was trying to get across, only much better stated.

Oh, come on, that's not fair. I'm sure she has a great sense of humor, but just finds this certain thing offensive. Alright, I'm out.

The problem is that not everyone agrees with you on what is mocking religon and what is not.
