is freddie really at peace?

I don't mean to be mean as well, but read before you ask. I am tired of the newbies that come on here and aske the most easiest questions! (ig, who wrote we are the champoins?) (excuse the french) It pisses me off, that some people come on here claiming to be queen fans, and dont even know th fucking basics.

Not aimed at you paris. This is just a rant!

It's becoming more and more irritating...
Is Freddie in peace...? Well read fatty's recent story, you'll find out what's happening with Freddie....

And FAQ is a really good idea, but without any moderator the questions will still appear, that's for sure. Then again- I'm agains any moderator (so is Richard himself). Is being mean the only way...? Shit, seems like...

P_G, that doesn't mean we can't just tell them something that's perfectly common knowledge among we Queen fans. Okay, I don't want newbies coming on and asking "What was Roger's average driving speed when he was on the Dixie Dieway and drunk?" or something equally ludicrous. But nowhere else on the Web where I belong do people get this snippy when someone comes on asking what they were under the impression was a perfectly innocent question.

If no one minds me saying, I prefer this to the standard "Oh, everyone, I'm so depressed I could DIE, I think John's D string may have been out of tune on such and such song at such and such second..."

"I am fed up with people showing up on this board asking questions like the above which is a conglomerate of half knowledge and full nonsense. Is Freddie a demon, who gave him the virus, what happened to his ashes, should Hutton be dead etc ad infinitum. Of course, everybody can ask what they want but they have to take the answers. If we don't want Queenzone to turn into the playground of all kind of loonies with decent and intelligent posts being marginalised, we should not encourage this nonsense."

YV, very well said. I couldn't agree more.

"i read in a freddie biography once that his parents religious laws said that when someone dies they must be brought back to the country were they were born and buried on holy ground so that they could be at peace"

Yes, I read that this was their beliefs also, but because they were in England they had to modernize their customs. Phoebe also mentioned in his book that he was happy that Freddie had wanted to be cremated in his will because that was his parents beliefs. And, because he was not married, his parents would have the last word as to Freddie.
On another note, Paris, don't be discouraged about asking anything and offering your views on Freddie or Queen as this is what a Queen forum is all about.

There is already a FAQ at Queenzone. http://www.queenzone.com/questions/

Perhaps it needs to be expanded or updated, but it's there. It's accessible under the 'Library' link.

o, holy shit, malina takes her wisdom as well in this topic

I think it is now so low that I can add my comments as well

get alive and become a fan of britney speers or so, and leave the quality for who show respect, as well in their questions.

Good to see that even in this topic some people with functionng brains and respects for others react

We don't need a FAQ if we had less stupid people on here.

Ignorance and stupidity should not be an excuse.

And I'm not talking to Paris.

Bloody hell, someone has started a topic about Freddie Mercury's ashes. Topics at this site have reached a new low.

The only thing more absurd than this is that there are some people acually defending such topics.

We're not talking about Freddie's "ashes" we're talking about what was said about his parent's customs; there is a huge difference, if you would or could take the time to READ the topic! And, paris, again, please, don't be hesitant to say what you want and feel about Queen. Again, this is a forum for all to express what they feel about such.

And S@turn, what exactly is it you are saying about me? My knowledge about Freddie IS vast indeed and accurate, thank you very much.

If you "google" and look up Zorastrian religion you will find what paris is talking about. Here is one such quote.

"The peoples of ancient Persia believed that earth-burial was not even permissible; that such burial, to a certain degree, would block the coursings and journeyings required by nature. For this reason they built Towers of Silence open to the sky, on the mountain tops, and lay the dead therein on the surface of the ground. But they failed to observe that burial in the earth doth not prevent the natural travellings and coursings which are an exigency of creation -- that rather, earth-burial, besides permitting the natural march of phenomena, offereth other benefits as well.
('Abdu'l-Bahá,
Summon up Remembrance,
p. 175)"

An interesting topic of discussion, in my opinion, as it so differs from our beliefs and customs and because it pertains to Freddie. There is nothing weird about it; nothing prying about it; it has been written about, and those of us who have read it (really read it) are free to discuss it on such a forum. So, those of you who are so quick to denounce someone for asking a question and insinuating that that person has not done their research, please do your own research before replying! You will be surprised at what you can learn if you really are interested in doing so.

I don't think your knowledge is vast and accurate.
In particular, I don't think it is accurate at all.

I think Malina's knowledge about Freddie IS vast and actually that's the main problem.

Did Freddie fart at night?

Freddie didn't fart, like many rockstars, he had no asshole and was full of shit.
