Extremist or offensive Guild names.. - Page 3

Definition of Bigot
big·ot
n.
One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.

and that is exactly what you are MG.
So I think you should rethink your decision about the guild cause you are committing bigotry by refusing it just because of its name cause it is a Religion.

this is from FoamyBoa again
my definition of a bigot, is someone who judges something with out having any knowledge about whatever it is he is judging

which is what you did moongod
you ASSUMED it was evil, without any knowledge of the religion at all.
to me, that makes you a bigot.

you are a very ignorant person moongod.

the real definition is

One who is intolerant of those who differ. (and it has become painfully obvious that you are)

Eh, surprised this is still going on. I'll just quickly jump in and say this.

As with any public services, the ones in charge usually aim to keep the "public morals" as a primary issue, while respecting the opinions of the minority views. Public morals is basically the majority belief (ie. don't go around killing people, don't kick puppies, don't jump old people in wheelchairs, et cetera), so that will always be upheld, obviously. Minority views aren't going to win (ie. human sacrafices are a-okay), but their beliefs will be noted. Since the point is to please as many possible, majority rules.

The majority is not offended, therefore the guild should get tags.

Since I do not belong to any religion or group , I cannot be partial to one , I just go by the guidlines set by Graal in all that we do on Npulse , if you have a problem with a Server that follows rules, I suggest you go to one of the PW's that don't ...

AK47 is a gun... and not even a Guild on Npulse , its like naming a guild after an object , like a Football and would be allowed ... so whats the point?

albus777 · #39 05-19-2002, 02:26 AM

Oh but this gun was used to kill so many people!!!!!!!

And what about Blitzkreig?!?!

MG Having a Satanic tag is not "preaching" at anybody. That's like saying someone wearing a shirt that says I love jesus or something is preaching, no, they are expressing THEIR oppinion, and you cannot stop them jsut because you don't beleive the same as them, are they forcing YOU to do it? no.

Also you say you don't want any names with Holy or God in them.. very hypocritical (sp?), look at YOUR name! People can be VERY offended if they don't beleive there is a god for the moon, or theycan be even MORE offended if they DO have one and they beleive you are disrespecting it

If you read the post , I did not seperate Holy God like you did ....

My take on it is that people can get pissed off at anything, so sucks for them. Unless it was a deliberate attempt to offend people, it shouldn't be a matter of discussion.

Satanism is a valid religion, they do NOT worship the devil as some of you more ignorant people may think.
They dont believe in God, or the Devil, they believe in total freedom(anarchy).
Anyone who says they do needs to be smashed in the face with an ironing board.
If you wont let someone use that name, or something close to it, then, im offended by guilds having the word Holy, and Heaven, and anything related to them in their name.

Everyone shut up. It's people like that who start topics like that who only strive for attention. They are not Satanist, they are just trying to start a commotion and get their way. It has nothing to do with anybody's ****in belief so give it a rest.

LOL. Apparently somebody doesn't know about WWII.

Blitzkreig, or "lightning war" was the n a z i invasion strategy. They attacked so swiftly they enemy fell before they could get defenses up.
