  • I'm New Here (introduction)

    Hello, everyone! My name is Raleed. I have been a Reverend with the First Nubian Unity Church in Windsor, Ontario for the past 4 years, and I've recently relocated to East St. Louis, Illinois for expansion. I'm not sure exactly how I stumbled across this website, but it seems like a nice place to chat. I was never interested in purchasing a VW, but after driving my fiancee's Pasaat, I was sold on the fact that although they have not been good people historically, the German people could now build a fine automobile.

    Oh, well..I can't speak for everyone here, but I bought my VW because Hilter was such a stand-up gent.


    Edit: Welcome Reverend...Wanna see if there's anything you can do about ensuring I don't get smitten (smoten?) for the above comment?

      Yes, VW might have been the idea of Adolf, it is important to remember that without the allies being in Germany, VW would have never survived. It was the allies that allowed the factory workers to begin building the people car again. VW has also paid millions in restitution over the year, although it does not excuse what was done under Hitler. After WWII Henry Ford was given the opportunity to buy VW, and he said no. Whoops.


      Anyway, Welcome abord.

        I trust it would be best to perhaps remove this thread altogether. I dont see anything good coming from it at all. Plus, perhaps it's best to remember what Augustine said: "never judge something by it's abuse".... and that translates to nations as well. Don't forget it.

            IT TRANSLATES TO THIS THREAD ALSO!...so quit being so touchy, and don't let me ever catch you whining behind the scenes to any moderators either...quality posts by j'aime ta femme and myself deserve space here as much as anything you type...

                    Not saying you don't deserve space... and maybe you should relax a little. Almost all of us here know each other outside of the forum, so don't even start with this moderator garbage. Just have fun here.....

                      I really don't care for this kind of attitude - from a newbie or someone with a post count in the thousands, it doesn't matter. Threatening someone is not cool, man.

                      I think you'll find that if you show some respect, you'll get it in return.

                      As far as I'm concerned, you have made a very poor first impression.

                        Have to agree with you Chris, a bad impression has been made in 2 posts. Maybe you should jsut start a new thread and start over, expecially for a reverand.
