As both Didactylos and Nesloc said, religious discussions are perfectly acceptable in the chat room. Repeatedly hijacking someone's team thread is against forum rules.

I think we all know who is daft or is it draft as with to many openings in in the frontal lobes--why dont you just let the man post what he wants in his team thread and i did not see as nelsoc stated where chip broke any rules--sometimes when someone wont stand up for themselves maybe somebody should

What Nelsoc actually wrote :

My bold in Nelsocs quote BTW.

Extreme verses from the Quran can be taken and twisted to encourage this kind of thing BTW.

Whl: Verses taken out of context from the Bible were mixed with greed and bigotry to justify the crusades. Please don't condemn all because of a radical few.

As for eating and socializing with people of other faiths, I work with people who follow a number of beliefs including Islam, Christianity, Tao, different Hindi sects, and one of the Buddest sects whose name slips my mind. We have attended multiple social events together and have had civil discussions about the differences between our beliefs and why there is turmoil within a given belief (such as the fighting between the Muslim Sunni and Shiite and the Protestant and Catholic groups). I would love to have a civil discussion with you concerning my relationship with God, but I don't think this thread is the correct place for it.

I have not visited the old Islam team forum, and only briefly stopped in the new forum after seeing this thread and the name of the last person who had posted at the time, but I am saddened by the attacks on this team. My opinion is that the team forum should be a largely private area for the team to provide information to other team members. Just for clarification, there are a number of team forums I have not visited because they have no active interest to me. I treat a given teams forum much as I would a place of worship or club house. One does not run into a soccer team's locker room and slander the team or cheer for another team (at least not twice).

While I understand the current forum software does not permit it, it would be nice if each team had two threads, one for only team members, and one for public discussion about the team. I realize this approach can be complicated by people joining the team so they can attack it, although this type of attack should be limited if the team captain can control access to the private thread.

We are all donating our time and machines in an effort to improve our quality of life. After all, 10 out of 10 people have a terminal condition which will end in death. It's just a matter of how long and how much pain is involved. The last time I checked, we all bleed red (OK, my son bleeds blue when his oxygen levels are low). What I am trying to say is that while we all have different backgrounds and beliefs, we need to agree to disagree, get over our differences, and work as a true team so we can achieve our one goal.

As others have already said: Go team WCG
