Clans separating "race" and "religion" are a disgrace.

[AA7]

Here's my rant about clans that only allow you to join if you believe in a certain culture or are a certain colour or religion.

They need to stop. I believe all religions, colours and any other racial aspect should be able to co-exist together. I'm sure you're proud of believing in a certain god or religion but that's too personal to bring to a Nintendo site. Groups focusing on a religious group should be made in your offline life and not online. Excluding people from a clan because they aren't Muslim or any other religion is NOT GOOD. North America, Australia and the UK are diverse countries (where most of our members come from) which means we have a diverse site. Separating the diversity into clans is NOT GOOD. People might be racist towards each other, making a clan like that won't appeal to many members, members might make comments regarding their religion that others might not approve of, if a certain religious group loses in a competion they may feel that they failed their god or whatever and so on. Just let all religions and colours co-exist in this beautiful world we have. The more colourful we are, the better. Keep your religions beliefs offline and don't bring them to a diverse Nintendo Forum.

A smart women made this comment which everyone should understand when making actions in today's society:

"While the legal, material, and even superficial requirements to eradicate racism are well known, its psychological and more deeply spiritual requirements have been persistently neglected-namely, the oneness of the human family. It is this principle of oneness that needs to be the driving force behind the struggle of uniting the races."
--Sara Harrington, 1998

True that.
Xane gave Sexygurl the green light to make the group, and she really isn't trying to offend anyone, which deserves an applaud; but at this rate, however, the thread might be closed due to immaturity and racism, sadly.

Thanks Hiroko, I added to it slightly. =]

All clans that revolve around religion have now been deleted. Whether good intentioned or not, it is in the forum rules that religion is to be kept away from FC>

True. I knew it was happening, and tried to prevent it, and decided to give the group a chance. I'll admit I was going to close it as soon as I saw the thread name, those where my intentions, but after watching for a while, I just gave a warning, and tried to make the group actually exist because I saw Sexygurl01's intentions where not bad, they where actually good, And by doing that, I kind of went over part of the FC rules. I apologized to both FC staff and Sexygurl. But It was bound to happen even if I tried to prevent it... I was sure it was going to happen though.

But like I told sexygurl, I wish her the best of luck in a next group she creates, and so to anyone else who wishes to create one. Just, let's try to keep Religion out of this, Too many immaturity and racism on the internet these days, like Hiroko said.

Totally agree with you Aj :0

[ajsuson]

If that's the case, this religion should be taken in the elsewhere than putting this content as a purpose in this clan. Just a sugestion.

Who? Me? Or was it kid is mad? After all, the rules in this forum must be for gaming and the clan must have a purpose. For my clan, I have my purpose: To fight for honor and play for fun. My clan focus less on Pokemon, however, like Bleach DS Games, Mario Kart DS & Star Fox Command.

EDIT: Oh, yeah. Forgot to mention, The Metroid Prime: Hunters.
