No, I think you wrote that well.
I get sick of people who are like that, or people who have to be politically correct. They are more interested in trying to please everyone that the actual truth. The unfortunate thing is that when you try to please everyone, you end up pleasing no one very much.
If something is offensive to one person, it should still be allowed to be spoken. Unless it is an unfounded personal attack on their character, then we should be able to say what we want. It's the insecure people who cannot bear to hear someone speak honestly about what they believe or think.
Another thing which is similar is when people listen to you, don't tell you to shut up because you're being offensive but pay absolutely no attention to what you're saying. Sure they might listen to you, but you can tell that they've already written you and your 'crazy' ideas off. In my opinion those people are worse as they are just as ignorant but don't have the balls to be upfront about it.
When it comes to religion and atheism, I think both sides should have their say. I'm happy for christians to be able to make their case for this and that and to be able to advertise and so on. But if they want that right, then they have to be prepared for atheism to tear it's arguments to shreds. And once again it's the insecure people who react. The secure ones continue believing and are unaffected by the arguments.
The double standards thing needs to be abolished from our world. So long as religion can have it's say, then likewise atheism can too. And I believe the only reason some christians are afraid of atheism is because they see it coming to rob them of their 'GOD GIVEN' authority.
