I was thing, if a person came on line and had a user name "egg roll" and as an avatar had a picture of an "egg roll", would we all assume this person was Chinese?
What if the person was really a White Anglo-Saxon Protestant.
Would this be called deception?
Would this be lying?
Is it sin?
Is deception sin?

Why, were you hoping to have called yourself Egg-Rollo Tamasi? :D

Rollo...I'm glad I got to you before you called yourself egg roll.....:(

Yes, all the above, it is deceptive, lying and sinful, indeed! It is deceptive for two reasons.

First is has no egg in it, except for the wrapper, and second, the Egg roll is an American invention from before WWII. It is the secondary and more popular name for the original hijacked Spring roll, of China. It is a Chinese New Year food meant to symbolize a gold bar - wealth. Given to someone it indicates you wish them prosperity for the next year.

See what I mean about those poisonous secondary names that can bite ya …:) words have meanings bro....:cool:

Now I know what a spring roll is, and I certainly would have thought ' Chinese ' - but I did not realise what it symbolised.

It's no ones business if you like egg rolls or not. Same goes for race etc...

If they assume incorrectly about such things its not my problem. They should learn not to make assumptions.

It happens all the time with gender, when I assume it and address someone incorrectly based on a user name.

I tend to Agree, Assumptions, and Presumption's Should not be Part of a Believers Personality, We should always upon interacting with other's hold to, Giving them the Benefit of Doubt. After a while most revel there true intentions!

Yes, I also believe it's a Neopolitan invention.
What you put on it let's it become pizza. I could put ham and cheese on some dough, but it won't be pizza!
I'd say it's the tomatoe sauce and mozzarella. Any other addition is extra.

Now how was I pretty close?
American is vague
You could be an eskimo or someone from Chile

OK ,,An American = I became a naturalized US citizen for the entire US lands of the 50 States and PR and some other Islands. And a citizen of Florida, so I'm a dual citizen then,,???,and I live close to the grounds of the Seminole Indians. And I love watching rugby and soccer...I guess I imported these vices...ok I like key -lime pie, the Florida State dessert... and I like to visit Disneyworld....and there is small English restaurant that serves meat pasties and pies etc..I guess I imported that vice as well....ok an American can be a mixed up bowl of all colored and varied vices, nuts and fruitcakes...although I'm not one of them...because I'm an American-PAK.

I don't know, with a quote like that, you're as American as apple pie
This other stuff must be your alter-ego or something
