Noel's angel Posted September 22, 2004 Posted September 22, 2004 Im not sure whether anyone knows this, but Morphs signature shows a parimilitary group in Northern Ireland who have killed many people and I personally find it offensive, Im not sure if Morph realises his mistake but the IRA are not an association that Christians want to be associated with and I would appreciate it if it could be changed
Iacobus Posted September 22, 2004 Posted September 22, 2004 There is a thread about it in the lame board. You are not alone.
Noel's angel Posted September 22, 2004 Author Posted September 22, 2004 Ahhh, sorry, i havent been on that board. i didnt really expect it to be on that board because it is a VERY serious matter and i find it very offensive, thanks for letting me know
Iacobus Posted September 22, 2004 Posted September 22, 2004 Yeh it is a serouis matter but it seems to have arisen in a thread there and someone made a thread about it in order to stop from hijacking the thread in which it had arisen. And if that makes any sense, I shall be worried about your sanity.
Noel's angel Posted September 22, 2004 Author Posted September 22, 2004 lol, yeah, i understand, thanks. Can DuST (hope i got it right) not do anything about it because it is REALLY annoying me, it hits a nerve u could say
Sojourner Posted September 22, 2004 Posted September 22, 2004 Noel's angel, After reading your post in the Lame thread, I very much support you in this.
dUSt Posted September 22, 2004 Posted September 22, 2004 I'll do something about it. By the way, my new avatar and sig are sick.

Im doing it coz of my ancestry and what my family went thru for 900 years. SO its anything BUT ATTEN.
MorphRC Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Ohh but if someone has a Pro-US Admin sig, or Pro-Us sig, its just fine, even though America has been one of the largest terror supporting organizations on this planet.

I'm half Irish, and a most interesting mix, 25% Northern "Orangeman" Irish and 25% Southern "Greenman" or "Mick" Irish. I have friends whose homes were bombed by terrorists in Ireland. I'm against the IRA and everything it stands for. Furthermore, you keep saying that it is hypocritical for Americans to be against the IRA, but if America really does sponsor terror, and you are against it, but support the IRA, the main purpose of which is terror, wouldn't that make you a hypocrite, too?

Ash Wednesday Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Oh, dear. Hi, Morph. One question. Have you ever been to Belfast or Northern Ireland?

I said its hypocritical of the US Admin to call others terrorists, when it is one itself.

If your not, then ignore the above. gb
qfnol31 Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Does the IRA employ bad ways to get their independence? Just because you're against a group does not mean you don't support their cause. This is way too often what people think.
