For some reason Mr. Dodd is not receiving the articles I post from him. shari _______________________________________________________________________ >I assume the readers of the net are wondering why I posted this last article. >Since Mr. Dodd feels that he is being censored, this should prove to him once >and for all that he is not, but that there is a problem with his being able >to post to this group. He approached me with this concern a few days back, What article ... I never saw it? You are still forcing me to reply through email. Why do I have to post through you? It isn't fair that you can post about me but I cannot! >and I replied to him almost immediately, this he cannot deny. I explained Yes you are very busy doing the wrong thing! >to him that several people had this trouble, in fact it was posted in >soc.culture.arabic that this was happening, and that his best solution was >to mail his articles directly to me, and I would post them. The previous >letter was what I got in reponse to my efforts. This is the first I've heard of them going to s.c.arabic. Why am I obliged to worry about s.c.arabic. I abandoned it as un-Islamic some time ago. >Maybe Mr. Dodd also didn't receive the articles in soc.culture.arabic >and talk.politics.mideast where I was the only non-Muslim to defend Islam A non-Mulsim is not qualified to defend Islam. Certainly not in prefrence to Muslims. As long as you chose to sit in the middle you will catch the cross-fire. The Muslims are well aquainted with groups who be-friend them to police their interactions with others. I don't question your intentions. It just won't work with a Muslim. >by Joachim Martillo. And maybe he forgets that the reason that I agreed >to take on co-moderatorship of this group is because of my respect for >Islam and its followers. I may not be a Muslim, but that does not mean that >I am automatically going to be an attacker. I think my past actions >have proven the opposite to be true. You are attacking me for defending Islam. The prophet Muhammad and the Qur'an leave no room for non-Muslims over Muslims. The Qur'an holds all of the acts of non-Muslims as vain. You cannot earn anything by being a so-called friend to Muslims. If you wish to make input you must first accept Islam! >If Mr. Dodd still feels the same about my actions as moderator of this group >after Behnam and I have explained to him that he is not being censored, then >I shall leave it up to you, the readers of the group, to decide. The readers may be able to vote about the net but Islamic issues are not resolved by a vote of unbelievers and muslims. I still am unable to respond in soc.religion.islam without first going through you. You are surpressing the message of Islam. Only Allah may decide! Omar nyevax 1005% bye
