Err, that is a poor criteria. Some people are offended by
others wishing them a merry Christmas, preferring happy holidays
instead. And others are offended by the dilution of Christmas by
happy holidays.
You are offended by the reference to sexcual preference. I am
disgusted by the implication you are offended by other peoples sexual
preference.
Indeed, I think the thinly veiled homophobia I seem to detect
in some posts and reactions around here does more to damage Debian
than that initial email to d-d-a.
