		<description>It&#039;s crazy if they took administrators responsible for everything!

&lt;strong&gt;It implies self-censorship through spreading fear.&lt;/strong&gt;

I can&#039;t tell you what to do but I am sure as you said, it doesn&#039;t worth it! so it doesn&#039;t worth it!
I try my best not to write about religion as much as possible! but can you do me favor? Please add to the website: It’s very normal in this region for a site administrator to be held entirely responsible for all the posts published here, that puts me and my colleagues at great risk. So please take into consideration when you want to write about controversial subjects.

Then everybody would understand what&#039;s right to write and vice versa!</description>

		<description>Hi Lord, thanks a lot for being so understanding. The other members here, instead of apologizing for this mistake like you kindly have, decided to call this site a &quot;dictatorship&quot; without realizing the dangers they are putting us in.

I don&#039;t think your posts are offensive. It is indeed the comments, which are done by our own authors:
&lt;blockquote&gt;
Allah is a masterpiece of every conflicts in Middle East and terrorists&lt;/blockquote&gt;
I am very impressed by your mature approach and by the responsibility you have taken in editing your post in order to protect this place.

We are happy to have someone like you on board! Thanks.</description>

I&#039;m not those ones (Believers or non-believers) who stuck their idealogy, and I change eveytime. therefore it dosent botter me whatever you say to do!

		<description>Hi Lord, no way, we won&#039;t do that! It is one of our moderation rules not to edit posts; in extreme cases we draft them until the author finds the time to edit it him/herself so that we don&#039;t put words in their mouths.

I enjoy reading your thoughts, I think the questions you raise are very valid, but we definitely must consider our region. It&#039;s not completely free, and we must take little steps in debating instead of completely denouncing things like the Quran or Islam. I know that it&#039;s very tempting to do that, but remember, this is what landed our friend Kareem in prison, and this is what could land us in prison as well if we continue.

We welcome you to this site and we look forward to reading your future thoughts and articles, however it&#039;s best to focus on things like philosophy and religion in the general sense as well.. you are more than welcome to question Islam but that has to be done responsibly and considerably, I think people like Fariborz took it very far with the bashing hence why we are worried for the site&#039;s credibility.

Fariborz thinks we are doing this to try and restrict his freedom of speech, but really we are worried about our future and the future of this network. It would be horrible to be imprisoned, tied in a legal issue or even to have this site be permanently suspended due to the articles of one person. It&#039;s not worth it at all.</description>
