Admins and Mods- Time for you to remove Da Sheik |
aprilmay2.0 |
When I read the terms of agreement and use, Actscelerate is supposed to be a Christian Forum for discussion. For this reason, the pen name "Da Sheik" isn't consistent with the purpose or spirit of the forum.
Allowing this type of persona on a Christian forum isn't helpful. IF da sheik was in fact a muslim, I would say welcome him with open arms in hopes that the dialouge would spark relationship with Christ.
No real islamic self respecting sheik would refer to himself as "Da Sheik" so Im guessing this is a parody account. Which brings about the questions-
1. Would we allow pen names of parodies like: Da Dali Lama, Da Sikkh Priest, Da Habib, Da Haji, Da Ayatollah, or worse to post here?
2. What type of Christian message do we communicate when those who are of the islamic faith look at Actscelerate and see this part of their religion mocked?
3.Where do we draw the line? Could I create a pen name called "Da Witch or Da Warlock?

I think his picture is that of a Sikh, not a Muslim. Either that or his one of those god forsaken Shriners for down at the lodge.

Obviously aprilMAY2.0 is a reference to the May Queen, aka Ishtar. The 2 is a cursive capital Q as we all know, so there can be no doubt that this "May-Queen" is a committed Pagan infiltrator trying to lead us all into Goddess worship and witchcraft. Time to burn this pen-name at the virtual stake. |

You probably ain't old enough to remember the song, "Ahab the Arab, Sheik of the burning sand". I enjoyed that song, and I thought I was a preacher at the time. Of course I didn't know enjoying a little fun and comedy was a virtual sin!
I always liked the avatar and unique pen name for the Da Sheik! I would bet one thing, the dude is a very good preacher and pastor.  _________________ Some facts but mostly just my opinion!

When someone has time to think, give value to their idea, formulate a post and then embark on such a quest...well, THAT person has too much time on their hands. Ban them so they can refocus their life. _________________ Live an epiK life!

The original post gives me all the energy I need to say I hope the administrator ignores this ridiculous request which stems from the mental illness of political-correctness and lets Da Sheik remain. _________________ "It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves UPCI

Sheik-is an honorific title in the Arabic language. It commonly designates the ruler of a tribe, who inherited the title from his father. "Sheikh" is given to a royal male at birth, whereas the related title "Sheikha" is given to a royal female at birth.
Offend Muslims? Who cares? The word predates Islam in the first place. The original poster probably wants all the Native American references removed from sports teams as well. I'd much rather see original poster banned for being a dangerous, brainwashed tool of those trying to destroy western civilization. _________________ "It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves UPCI |

Sorry. You must now be banned for bringing up that offensive song. _________________ "It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves UPCI |

I don't hope we just ban Da Sheik...I want him shot into orbit, then blasted out of the sky...like fireworks...only happier.
No, wait...NOT Da Sheik! I meant AprilMay 2.0 (or whatever--obviously a WOMAN, since she can't decide between April OR May...nor 1.0 vs. 2.0...just like a woman trying on shoes).
Of course, as long as no one messes with the "Sultans of Swing" by Dire Straits, I really don't care either way. ALTHOUGH, I propose that Isa58:12 is a much better candidate for beatin'. |
