Since the time of the Vikings the Scandinavian countries have been engaged in many different wars. Both against each other and as allies. During world war II the Danish and Norweigians fought agains Germany. The Finnish faught agains Russia, with some help from Swedish volunteers. Sweden stayed "neutral", but allowed the Germans to transport troops and equipment through Sweden to Norway. Sweden also shipped a lot of iron ore to Germany during the war.Today the Scandinavian countries are engaged in war activities in Afghanistan. Sweden, Denmark and Norway have their airforces engaged in Libya.

Not to mention Gustav I and the Danes, and Gustav II who conquered a fair part of northern Europe...DJ

I've consulted with the Baby *******, to see if that signature made him cry (which as everyone knows, is the standard way to determine if things are good or bad), and he approved of it, so I assume it must be okay. Of course any student of religion knows from the story of the Ascension, that ******* is a fan of VTOL, so turn to page 324 of your hymnals and join me in song:Away in a JetRanger,spinning up the rotor head,The little lord ******* keeps the torque out of the red,ATC in the bright sky,said 'there's landing fees to pay',so he raised the collective,and he promptly flew away.Joking aside, claiming you love something on your signature, whether it is *******, Buddha, Mithra or whatever, isn't really any different from claiming you love the PMDG 747 or the iFly 737. So long as you aren't ramming it down anyone else's throat, I don't really see it as a problem, and as Tom has said, it would be proselytizing, if that had taken place, which would be an issue.Al

However quoting from the bible to illustrate a grammatical point is proselytizing.

No it is not, proselytizing is an overt attempt to convert someone to a different viewpoint. Sticking a favourite Bible quote in your signature is not an attempt to convert other people to your beliefs any more than sticking a quote from Lord of The Rings is an attempt to make us believe in the existence of Middle Earth.Al

AVSIM thought it was proselytizing - it censored it.

Maybe they were just opposed to starting sentences with conjunctions :LMAO: Al

By eck Chockers! You're a clever lad.Teacher, lecturer, Lawyer (spy) perhaps cheers Andy

Nice try, but that wasn't the reason given at the time!EDIT

This is as good english as it was on the day it was written:EDITED BY ADMINIt is inappropriate to post religious messages here. Thx!

Nice try, but that wasn't the reason given at the time!EDIT

So? An overzealous ADMIN made a mistake. It sure wasn't the first, nor will it likely be the last... :Thinking:

So basically, this post is a tattle on another person's signature. Mainly because of hard feelings from a post being deleted? No offense but that is very petty.

Not petty. It clarified what is and what is not allowed here.

Fair enough. Given the way the thread started:

I understood that religious views are not permitted on these forums yet BIGSKY's signature reads:"******* Christ is my Lord and Savior. As my loving God and Lord has protected and guided me throughout my life, I pray he will do likewise for you and your family. May each of you achieve your dreams, and not be troubled by hardships. I pray for your good health. God will only give you as much load as you can bear, and never any more. Do not lose hope, nor certainly faith. Above all, do not fear evil, for though it surrounds us it can never hurt us. It may claim hollow victories, but it always suffers defeat."

I must say I missed the point at first. Only later does the reason to the post even surface.
