Thoughts on "Christian Cuber" or "Atheist Cuber" signatures

I don't really see why anyone is worried about what people put in their signature. If someone wants to put "Christian Cuber" or "3x3 PB: 24.86" or "CARROT" - what's the problem? It doesn't matter that you don't care, because they care enough to have it there. If you don't like sigs at all you can always turn them off. I say you should just be happy that signatures are limited to two lines of text, unlike other forums where some members have huge amounts of text or flashing animations under every post they make.

I just want to point out that atheists tend to come from families where they had religion forced on them. I assume that because of this they push atheism on others. This in no way is justified, nor is pushing an religion on anyone.
I just want to point out that you must not know a lot of atheists.

This. Other forums can be really annoying because of this. This forum is much cleaner because of the two lines of text limit.

Thanks for the sig idea by the way. [/random]

I think it would be nice if a small image, say no more than 250*100 was allowed. It would be a nice creative expression thing, if everyone behaved. Probably would increase the quality of signatures, too, but you never know who's going to put something stupid or not.

But then people would get mad because I would put a picture of jesus!
 
Why would anyone be offended by a Christian sig?

Do you get all upset by someone who advocates Roux in their sig and feel the need to start a protest thread about it? Eww! Dumb!!!
 
I'm not actually offended by it (I just ignore the sigs most of the time), but I can see why people might be.

Advertising your religion is not exactly the same as advertising any other interest or hobby you happen to have. An important part of several major religions (Christianity and Islam, I'm looking at you) involves going forth and actively spreading your belief to those who haven't "seen the light". Maybe it's not what you personally believe, but when you advertise your Christianity you imply that you subscribe to their beliefs, including something along those lines. It could make a non-Christian feel that you believe he should be Christian, and that could be offensive to him.

As for the "Atheist cuber" signatures, they're obviously a reaction to the religious signatures. Nobody declares "non-stamp collecting" as a hobby or advertises themselves as a "non-Roux user" if they use Fridrich.

who cares if its offensive to a particular person. As you said part of the religion involves going forth etc. So by putting it in their sig they are following what they believe in, and at the same time not forcing it on anyone.

So would it be okay for me to be publicly racist if that's what I really believe?

yep, just stick it in your sig and be on your way.

Funnily enough, my sig is already a little racist. More of an inside joke though.
