Hi David --

You honestly can't believe that someone else has a different view from your own?

Is that really how you see this discussion evolving? You've got it 100% bassackwards, pal. The trouble here is, some folks do indeed hold the perspective you suggest, and they want to see their viewpoints dominate by whatever means they have available. (If the subtext there isn't totally clear, please refer to the Subject of this thread, eh?)

What's interesting, sociologically, is that they somehow feel they have a *right* to not be offended. That's just about as hilariously asinine as notions come, wouldn't you agree?
