[edit] Alianism

Google searches for "Alianism" etc. yield no related results. Additionally, user on this IP has a record of vandalism. Almost certainly, the subject is fake. M412k 04:20, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

• Well I'd just like to say that I personally know a sect of Alianists and that the religion is not a hoax. I don't who added the article to Wikipedia because Alianism doesnt promote use of technology and therefore I doubt that it was a practicing member who posted it. However, most of the information in the article is correct according to my source and she finds the idea of you dismissing her religion as a hoax hurtful and deeply discriminatory. Alianist members are also in the process of setting up a website she tells me so the point about there being no search results on google is totally moot. I have to say it sends a very bad message, image wise, about Wikipedia that it is willing to delete the first publication about a new religion for absolutely no reason. And to the person who was talking about the IP address you'll probably realise that this has the same address. This is because I am on a computer at Sydney Girls High School in Sydney. This does not, however, make me a student, nor does it make up opinions invalid. (Unsigned comment by Hesfb (talk · contribs), user's first edit)
• I think this open patronising of such a worthwhile religion is horrible. i am a converted full believer of Alianism. My husband converted me in order for us to be married in a traditional Alian ceremony. I am slightly unorthodox in the fact that I use computers and do believe in technology, but i find it terribley offensive that my deep spiritual belief would be questioned in this way.
