Powersun, I have noticed that you continuously post religious material on a political forum.... that in itself is bad enough... you multiply the error by never posting any personal lines as to your materials political connection and then NEVER answer any replies you may receive...
I find the politicizing of God (whichever god) to be personally and professionally repugnant... This "Kafir" is about to moderate and if this practice continues.... ban you. Lack of response in the public forum to this will have proved my point and will result in banning as well.
