Apartment Life = Satantist?
Glamily:
i think this is slightly odd.. every person is open to their beliefs (but I soo need spell check!) I know she is the site owner but honestly, she needs to pinch herself and realise that she DOESN'T own or run this world. Yes she owns the site but this game is not satanic (or however u spell it) Its a simple game just like Makin Magic for sims 1. Does anybody say that is evil or wateva.. no.. its just a simple game. Made for fun to be enjoyed. Simple as that.. Now rant is over, may not make sense but eh..

You are absolutely right. It is her site and she can do as she pleases. If she wishes to exclude all those who are not her religion than that's her choice. But this is about someone making a broad and incorrect statement which offended people. Also, not all sites ban people at the drop of a hat or because of one heated discussion. Some do, I'll give you that. But while it's their right to do so it's the peoples right to speak their mind about it. Like raynesonyx said... they weren't allowed to speak about it there so they are speaking about it here.
You act as though she IS in fact incorrect or wrong. That's a judgement. What if she is right? She believes what she believes and so do you, fair is fair. Who is to say who is right or wrong?
Also, I read at her site that all are welcome but no satanic stuff. Okay, I can deal with that and I'm sure many others can too.
I'm sure if she feels threatened she would ban someone. Wouldn't you if you felt threatened? I saw the threads posted at GOS, she didn't attack anyone anymore than what they were flooding her forum with accusations of ignorance calling her 'stupid/ignorant' and 'you're going to hell' and 'you'll pay'. Those sound threatening to me. I don't blame her for banning people who threaten her.
But this big thing is J00wish sure sounds petty to say she is wrong. You don't know that she is wrong. You believe she is wrong. And she believes she is right.

This is so fraking ridiculous!!! One of the main reasons to buy this EP, at least in my opinion, is because of the witches, I saw the trailers and I found them funny. Since the aliens, I did not like any of the new creatures.
So what would be next in her small mind, to listen simlish backwards to try to find hidden satanic messages or burn Enayla for her amazing Pixie Demonic skins?:evil2::evil2:
Instead of asking for banning witches, she should ask to send letters to stop securom. I am sure everybody will colaborate with that.

It seems no one is showing Dl any tolerance for her religious beliefs which was stated that this is what her church and there faith believe rather its correct or not isn't relevant but its her faith that has lead her to these conclusions which has lead to her being called ignorant and a bigot for trusting in her own faith!
I honestly don't think Dl pulled this out of her ass and said because I said so but its her faithfulness to her church and there teachings
I would hope we would not ridicule one for believing in there faith or mocking there beliefs no matter what there religious preference might be.
It's easy to see Dl has angered many by believing in her faith rather that information is right or wrong. We do hear everyone bitching tolerance yet it seems tolerated to ridicule and mock her for her own religious beliefs?

I am stating that email in question is wrong in my opinion based on the statements by people who are in that religion (who are called witches) and have said there it has NOTHING to do with Satanism. These are the people who were offended. These are the people I am talking about. As far as DL is concerned, she has every right to her beliefs. I think that she should have thought better about HOW she worded the email. Using such generalized terms linking witches to satanism is incorrect in that there are people who are called witches and have nothing to do with Wicca.
I have found nothing that combines witches with satanism. But lets take this from a different angle: Christianity. While all will call themselves Christians, there are differences/disagreements within the different denominations.
I hope I clarified that I am NOT being petty and simply pointing out that doing some research before sending out a mass email would have saved a lot of headaches and not insulted so many people.

I am not mocking anyone for their religious belief. Nor am I ridiculing. Many people who are of the same faith have different opinions. I find it ironic that you are stating that DL deserves some religious tolerance when the issue is that other people felt they were not given the same respect.
Also, we are talking about a forum with members of different faiths and lifestyles who were obviously offended by a statement she made. NOT her religion. NOT her faith. I admire anyone who can be spiritual and follow their religious guidelines. There are too many hypocrites in this world.
You know what I'd REALLY like to see on this thread? The name "DL" taken out of the equation and instead of focusing on her discuss the real issue. People in general who feel the EP may or may not include inappropriate content. I don't want this to become a DL bashing thread. Kathy has made it quite clear that she is not posting this to be a thread about a person who is no longer on this site. I chimed in only for the interesting discussion on the EP and have no opinion of DL whatsoever.
