Of course it’s offensive but you’ll never ever get them to see that fact. It’s a whole bowl of wrong when someone questions the nuttiness of religiosity especially after recent events but let them want to advance their own beliefs and they shove them down your throat like Wesley Pipes does during his porn videos. It’s stunning how they get all bent out of shape yet they have been spreading their own special brand of hate for thousands of years and that’s ok.
I must get 10 emails off list every time I post something from people telling me that I’m completely whacked for not being a believer or I’m the cause of everything wrong because I think God is fictional. So yes, I’m equally offended since everyone wants to get so offended so easily. As I said, let’s close the thread and try to be friends / civil.
