Anyone miss 'we r'

It's all a matter of opinion with no right answer.

I could easily argue that all 1 billion Muslim people on the planet are bad people because they believe that I am doomed to suffer eternal damnation in the fires of hell for not believing in Allah...

In fact it offends me gravely because they aren't judging me for my skin colour, they're judging me for what I believe(or not in this case) in.

Is that any less offensive than racism?

...oh and to avoid the inevitable bashing if I don't say this, the same can be said for Christianity

He's French

Is that any less offensive than racism?

No, and i'd imagine anyone spouting any of that stuff towards a member (or members) would also get their marching orders.

Well i'd hope so anyway....

So if you disagree with it, then it's wrong? Or if the majority do, then it's wrong?

Terrible basis for making judgements IMO. I do agree that a football forum isn't the place for religious debate, but equally if a topic (such as this one and others) is about it then such comments should be freely allowed.

E.g. if I said 'I think your views are wrong' to someone who said 'stealing is good', should I be in trouble for judging them? No? What if I said it in response to someone saying 'illegal streams are good'?

I didn't say "its wrong", i'm saying that it is "offensive", which makes it unsuitable for forums like this.

One of my mates has turned a bit strange since he has been attending "Life Courses" and he now has some really strange opinions on people who get cancer. He now believes it is all in the mind and only weak minded people will suffer from the illness.

Now although he is entitled to his opinion, he has been spreading this opinion all over FB (i'm not even on FB by the way) and he is offending people left, right and centre.

All i said to him was this, whilst it is not a problem having a controversial opinion like this, but similarly to Hoddle who had his beliefs about disabled children, if you have an opinion that you know will cause offence - then you are better keeping it to yourself.

If you believe its fine to murder innocent people, steal from your own granny or anything else, then its probably better you keep this sort of stuff away from people you know will be apalled by it (i.e. the high majority).

This is not a "who is right" or "who is wrong" debate, its about decorum, using common sense and sensitivity.

^^^^^^

Exactly. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and beliefs, but there are some you simply cannot share at all due to the nature of them. I'm not pro-weare or anti-weare but the things he said are out of line, controversial and discriminative

The thing I have most problem with is not the views, but the hair trigger on offering them up without any thought whatsoever.

JPB is another one with this affliction.

I don't understand it either. It's not the sort of thing you'd say in public whilst being 100% sure that someone won't get offended/kick off over it so why say those things on a moderated site?
