  > To offend him is to offend me. You can't really offend that which does not currently exist. I can't offend Genghis Khan any more than I can offend the prophet or Jesus. > The same way, someone would offend you by offending your family. No, that's not the same way.

      Religious people tend to identify strongly with their religion, that is why this can happen. But they fail to recognize that their religion, its rules and customs apply to them, the subscribers to that religion and not to the rest of the world.

      Because being outspoken in a thread that touches on religion will get you downvoted. Don't sweat it.
