It doesn't matter how "different" his opinion is, as long as he articulates it in a way that is constructive to the discourse. But his posts are nothing like that. First of all you can never make out which side/opinion he's on. His posts sound like hallucinations of a mind on crack, which is deeply troubled, and which insults everybody.
So yeah, good thing that he's been booted.
So very well put, couldn't have said it better myself. People on here need to remember, its not always what you say, its how you say it and the tone attached to it.
True, True LINDA! Take note of your own words my dear!
nice one Choc

Have to admit, whilst it initially brought some jovial banter to the forum, after I while I totally skipped his/her posts, as they were totally incoherant and abusive (some other posts are the same as well).
I take it we can block his IP addy? If not, then banning him will only make him come back under a different handle!

Totally agree, i use the same technique.
Just leave him hanging around, ignore his posts.

I agree, at first I enjoyed them as they sparked interesting responses but then just started skipping his posts. (He did go too far many times)
Also if you read some of the recent posts I would say HP isn't even in the top 10 for "incoherent and abusive", This forum has really been going down hill over the last month or 2, I use to look forward to reading the posts, no longer.
Religion is supposed to give you guidance and the ability to tolerate peoples difference and guidance for YOUR life, not to be used as justification to condemn/belittle others.
How many people actually know what Muslim means? How many people know that if you go by the literal meaning of this word, Christians and Jews are considered Muslims? How many people on this board realize that Prophet Mohamed (PBUH) invited other religions to pray beside him?
At the end of the day if you believe in God, Karma, whatever you will only be judged for your actions not how you judge other peoples actions.
end of rant.

Hi,
Ineresting post there jacky.
About banning people, I guess its an exercise in futility. Having said that we need to have some sort of guidelines we need to stick to. Self censorship is the best way out. in case any of the members post 'incoherent and abusive' stuff, the only way to handle it is to IGNORE and NOT REACT.
Think about it... if HP's posts qualify as abusive, just ignore and do not reply. Same for any other post. have you ever part of a conversation where nobody replies to your comments/remarks?
I am sure you wil simply slip away soon! :-)
And by the way..... there are times when I look forward to HP's posts... spcially when I am having a bad day. They make me laugh and get over all the stress. :-)
The only way to get rid of temptation is to yeild to it....

banning HP alone is a biased and double standard decision - lot of other people are there who use abusive language more than HP -

Actually this wasn't something I was aware of either, I went to a tour of the Jumeria church last week before I left for Palestine and the speaker mentioned it.
