International forum of multi-ethnic, religious and political stances (due to membership diversity) requests that none of the aforementioned three topics are discussed on this forum.

If this place is truly multi-ethnic I think you should delete the original post- I personaly find it offensive to have a relidgiously biased organisation sniffing for members on a sim forum

Unfortunately Caleb that decision is up to Pete (otherwise we're persecuting and being intolerant). They are merely recruiting for a Virtual Airline.
That said I've had a look at their website and notified Pete on some issues I think may need addressing.

Hi Ozz,
          thanx for reply, whilst I dont want to kick up a stink about this, I think saying- they are merely recruiting for a va- is missing the point , they are recruiting  ONLY Christians and whilst appreciating that it is their right to do so you must realise that it alienates
people of other, or no religeon, and this forum cannot call itself multi ethnic and still carry such material.
To be totally honest I think they should only advertise in such a manner on an overtly christian site.

Really – nowhere in his post say anything about even having to be a Christian to join… so, I don’t know where you are pulling that from. The fact that this is a multi-cultural, -religious, -ethnicity, -whatever forum means you are going to have people from different backgrounds doing things related to those backgrounds – if we all did the “Im not expressing who I am” thing – we’d all be the same, and, wouldn’t that be worse?

Well I apologize for offending you, but I must disagree.  Just like any other group of folks that enjoy gaming with others of similar interests and/or beliefs, that's who we cater to.  I intentionally did not draft that post to state anything dogmatic to those of other belief systems, simply to do what other Virtual Airlines do when they wish to get the word out: advertise.

If myself or my organization has alienated you, I apologize, but you don't have to join! 8)

All I'm going to say is take a look at their website. Decide for yourself. I will not put down personal opinions as it is my job as a moderator to be impartial.

I think thats a great Idea Hagar! Then us Heathens can spread the message of Heathendom to all who are joined in our heathen gaming club. I think a bout of call of Duty or MOH would be a good way to spread love and the heathen message!!!!  -  Oh you said VA, how about a heathen game of CFS3 then.

(NO offense if you really are a heathen Hagar)

I just clicked the wrong button and it and my post got wiped.....

Question was - What would you call a Heathen VA?

mmmm, It'd do but its a bit boring!

How about with the added twist (notice in red!):

Pagan Airlines:-
Get closer to the gods

How about SHS (Satans Hades Services)? Or perhaps BA-C (Barbaric Anti-Christs)? Or maybe the inevitable PMS (Pagan Masochistical Skyways)? Grin (we know Fozzer will buy a first class ticket Wink Grin)
