What, if any, are the implications?
That the area described in the map is prophesied by God to be conquered?
Does anyone think that when someone plays the map it could fufill a prophacy?

There is no "nothing religious" crowd.

Why does anybody even listen to what some guy that doesn't even play this game has to say? I find it hilarious when you (sym) post in GD, or C&A, or any forum other than OT. You don't play this game, you're only here for the forums. So why involve yourself in aspects of this website in which you don't even participate? It all just seems like trolling to me.

Which part is "charged" or "heavy-handed"?

Well particularly the "According to God's prophecy" and "tear them apart and leave a valley of bones" bits could probably be toned down. It just sounds a bit extreme and the same energy could be conveyed without sounding so "challenging", if you know what I mean?
I personally don't have a problem with it but I could see how someone might be a little offended by the wording.

So Philistia and Phoenicia should be removed? That sounds like a comment for the map forum.

If you like, though it's a virtual guarantee of a dead discussion.

So you admit to wanting a lively discussion and not actually wanting a change to the map.
That is the dictionary definition of trolling.

Two question marks? I think you already know why this map can be considered controversial.
1) The aim of the map is overtly religious.
2) The aim of the map is overtly political.
Both are contentious.
The art of deliberately, cleverly, and secretly pissing people off, usually via the internet, using dialogue
deliberately arguing with complete fallacies on forums, comment threads, or message boards to get leets and other users pissed off by the troll's "ignorance"

It's almost as if you have a grudge against someone...

Did I miss someone else's complaints? I'm addressing the specific questions you posed in the third (or fourth) post of this thread. If someone else complained, I will certainly add that person's user name after your own in the parantheticals above.

No- nobody missed your point.

No, pretty sure you made it clear who you hate- it's Keira Knightley, right?
