I agree with you completely that LB's thread is inappropriate for obvious reasons and my threshold shouldn't be the yardstick for judging whether a thread is offensive or not but comparing LB's thread with some others put up by some of my brothers, we can't but say that he was unjustly treated.

I am not actually referring to just Frosbel's thread but threads put up by supposed Christians... see the one below for starters:






https://www.nairaland.com/1234377/hail-mary-indeed#14888865

What can be more profane and offensive than what Alex created up there? And to think that Alex thread remained open to this very day without any post hidden is indeed a 'miracle'...if we compare the above with what LB has then we can't help but say that LB was unfairly treated because he is an Atheist.

Don't get me wrong, I believe firmly that closing LB's thread was the right thing to do; but again if thread like Alexleo's could be allowed, then I don't see any reason why LB's thread was locked.

Ok. My stand on the other threads that were on a par with Lb's is that they should be brought to the mods' notice. Some people are more visible than others in every community of humans so their wrong or their well-doing appears to be faster or more often responded to than others. It's the same here.

Frankly i dont care. I would say JeSoul should simply have gone ahead to create an atheist section and moved your threads there. No point closing the thread to create hypocritical martyrs who cry intolerance when their attempts at abuse and ridicule of others is denied.


grin grin grin grin grin

I love this guy!


Always direct in his hate of atheists......pure honest disgust of atheism.


But at least, you agree that my thread shouldnt have been closed

So my thread is on the same level with the blasphemous, abusive crap from Alexleo?

Funny things is he's yet to point out what was offensive about the thread.. There wasn't any falsehood or lies on that thread as far as I'm concerned.

lol this is a ridiculous post. So something has to be false before it can be considered offensive? I suppose if i created a thread solely to mock you based on your family history you would be just fine with it as long as there isnt any falsehoods or lies no?

you sometimes just have to laugh at the incredulous nonsense that passes for thought around here.

this is just silly... how else do you parse the following statement - Funny things is he's yet to point out what was offensive about the thread.. There wasn't any falsehood or lies on that thread as far as I'm concerned.

Read it with some unbias. the inference there is that somehow since there was no falsehood or lies then there is nothing to consider offensive on the thread... i.e. it would be considered offensive only if there were falsehoods and lies.

It doesnt take a genius to figure that out. But of course i forgot i am dealing with dishonest minions who unfortunately are ignorant to see the gnats on their own noses.

I do understand your point and I believe you are right...frankly I believe Jesoul does a good job moderating this section, even going out of her way to appease people...I can bear witness to this.

But still a while back when things were rather 'hot' some persons took it up to complain about the wrong posts in the mod section and nothing was done about it...


Calculus12: Aunty jesoul, with posts like the one below are catholics expected to sit back and do nothing?


alexleo:
"HAIL MARY (queen of the coast and goddess of the catholic church)FULL OF MARINE POWERS, SATAN IS WITH YOU-
POWERFUL ART THOU AMONGST OTHER GODDESSES TO HAVE CAGED THE MINDS OF THE CATHOLICS AND DECEIVED THEM TO BELIEVE YOU REPRESENT THE MOTHER OF JESUS CHRIST WHO DIED THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO" (FOR TRULY MARY THE MOTHER OF JESUS CHRIST IS NOT PART OF THIS FRAUD IN THE CHURCH. SHE IS DEAD LONG AGO AND A DEAD PERSON CANNOT PRAY OR MEDIATE FOR THE LIVING.)IT IS ONLY IN THE NAME OF JESUS THAT THE BIBLE ASKED US TO PRAY.
CAGED ARE THE FRUITS OF YOUR EVIL MANIPULATING POWERS- THE CATHOLIC.
HORROR MARY (queen of the coast) MOTHER OF CATHOLICS.
MAY GOD DESTROY YOUR EVIL POWERS AND DELIVER THE CATHOLICS FROM YOUR DECEIT AND EVIL MANIPULATION BEFORE THEY DIE WITH SUCH DECEIT AND LOOSE HEAVEN. AMEN
HAIL MARY INDEED.

JeSoul: Uncle Calc...Infact ehn, not only do I expect you and other Catholics not to sit back and do nothing, I expect you to fire back, defend your faith vociferously, show logically why naysayers are wrong. Post your own positive stories of the good your church does around the world. I expect Catholics on NL to fight back with sincere honesty, don't keep silent in the face of criticism.

And I expect you and other catholics to do all the above within the boundaries of NL rules.

And with a name like Calculus, I know you are more than equal to the task, sir smiley.

If everything considered "offensive" were banned, there would be virtually no threads left here. The best thing to do would be to split the religion section into smaller chunks, those who cannot stand the heat can stay in their niche just as the muslims did.

lol....I almost choked on my bowl of cheerios (Yes, I drink cereal in the afternoon! dont judge me wink)


You made the inference not Muskeeto. I and Muskeeto didnt because we had already talked about abuse/falsehood in the previous 2 pages.


Furthermore, it still doesnt change the fact that Ihedinobi has failed to point out what is truly offensive in the thread

you seem to enjoy majoring in irrelevancy.. Would Ihedinobi's comment on what was offensive or not bring the thread back?

I didnt say we should condone it. I simply said that if we removed everything one person considers offensive then there would be nothing here to talk about. Create a section for protestants, catholics and atheists. Let everyone be offensive in his or her own section.

Unfortunately this is a suggestion that atheists have opposed consistently because their only rationale for existing here at all is that they have others to abuse.

Fuuny thing is offense is subjective. The rules aren't.

Rule 2, if followed strictly, will be the end of this section.


There are pagans on this section. Satanists too.

So except you want us all to turn to Grail Messengers.... Make we live In peace.. smiley

Offensive is a useless term. Your cathiolic stance on abortion is offensive to liberals.


Abusive, insulting.....those are proper terms for banishment and closing of threads


And yes, closing my thread was unfair cool

Dude, do you really think he didn't see that? Logicboy is a fanatic he'll employ dishonesty and bullying tactics if it helps him.

BTW Here's more from our muskeeto on this thread
musKeeto: undecided What a liar!! Is that what Christ teaches you? Where have I said LB's thread was not offensive? Where you idioot?

Ihedinobi: Ah, good! My mistake! So we are agreed that his thread was offensive. Pardon my error, I was under the impression that you were speaking in his defence. smiley

musKeeto:
THE LIAR has been caught pants down...
Ihe the LIAR.. Please show where I said Lb's thread's offensive...

This exchange simply made me laugh. It's that moment of pure dishonesty where someone lies by calling another person a liar.

Let us ask muskeeto now: Was logicboy's thread offensive or not?

lol at the sheer dishonesty. Muskeeto is best ignored to be honest. I have considered him a poor man's logicboy. Basically a cheerleader who contributes next to nothing with regard to intelligent discourse.
