    Apparently before this generates any more controversy.
    THIS THREAD IS CLOSED.

    Mmm, I remember a British teacher was imprisoned for letting one of her pupils call a teddy bear Allah too.
    Hate to break it to you but it's just a name.

    I don't see how this is offensive nor a 'VERY serious problem'.

    I find it strange that the user joined today and has never posted before and you managed to find him!! within 20 minutes of him joining you posted this thread.
    Sounds like a setup

    There's nothing strange about that at all. If you use the Forum Spy, you see all the new registrations as they appear, along with the threads and posts in the forums you've subscribed.

    Funny thread :) I came here asking myself "what the hell is a very serious problem?" and after all, nothing serious about it.

    Assuming your either a Christian or an atheist:
    Apparently not everyone believes in a free entry to heaven.
    And it may not be a serious problem to those like you who don't fear the creator , but if someone was to choose the username "Jesus" or "Yaweh" and then uses unparliamentary language and post something opposed to the teachings or principles of that particular religion, YES IT WOULD BE A VERY VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM.
    I'M GOING TO PURSUE THIS TO THE HIGHEST LEVEL AND EVEN FILE A POLICE REPORT IF I HAVE TO.

    LOL - dude you need to chill your biting the wrong end of the stick here.

    It's not a serious problem, the guys new and he's not causing any harm or breaking any rules and hasn't posted anything, like i said just add him to your ignore list.... problem solved, no need to over react and file a police report lol, what do you expect the police to do about it anyway? the name itself is not racist or anything like that..

    Yeah, I'm a Christian. I also believe in free entry to heaven.
    I'm secure enough with my own religion to realise that it doesn't matter what other people think about it or what they call them self in a forum. Consider that.

    Edit: Maybe this should be move to P&R?

    May the peace and blessings of Allah(the One and only God) be upon you.

    We muslims refer to "God the Almighty" as: "Allah".

    However today a user has registered himself choosing the username: "allah" :

    This is highly offensive to us muslims as we call out to our creator by invoking the name "Allah".

    I'm assuming that any God fearing Christian wouldnot like anyone to refer to themselves as "Jesus" likewise any God fearing Jew would not like anyone to refer to themselves as "Yaweh" similarly we muslims would not like anyone to refer to themselves as "Allah".
