I would prefer that we are friends. [/quote] I don't know how my statement would be taken as argumentative. I wasn't putting down Hassan. He's stated on numerous occasions that he's not Catholic and that what the tag means. Currently we have 40 guests (or lurkers) perusing through the site. dUSt has the tags so that folks new to the site can tell where people are coming from. The site's primary goal has always been to bring people to the Catholic faith. But also there has never been an attitude here of "If you're not Catholic, hit the road". So what do you do if you want to lead people to the Faith but still have a site that is welcoming to everyone, even if they have no intention of being Catholic? Well the tags then kind of help! Also I wouldn't consider posting a picture as a response to be non argumentative. I think its the opposite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark of the Cross Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 Wow! this is like getting bogged. The more I try to extricate myself, the deeper I get. I just had a look on phorum guidelines and it states that we should not post material not suitable for the young. I didn't see anything offensive in that picture. The lady is just as well dressed as many on our beaches and swimming pools. I cannot see anything evil or derogatory about the image. I think it's message is good. I personally don't find anything offensive in the female form when viewed aesthetically in a non sexual way. If I have offended some prudish people then I apologise and hopefully moderators will remove it. You yourself have engaged in lengthy arguments which are not within forum guidelines and which no doubt you have been making amends and are not really in a position to criticise others is what I was trying to imply as polity as I could. On my part this discussion has now ended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you suggesting that I was criticizing Hassan by saying he's not Catholic or that he'd lose the "I don't rep the pope" tag if he became Catholic? Because I'm pretty sure even he wouldn't see that as a criticism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
