Someone better tell Yee not to attend an American university because the situation in Singapore sounds very similar to the situation on college campuses here. Maybe the college can create a safe space just for Yee or create one for all the other students on campus so he can't offend them to their faces.
Lek, do you not grasp the difference between personal offense and being arrested for expressing a divergent viewpoint? Theists (all brands, not just Christians) offend me on a more or less regular basis, and I'm delighted that I live in a country where they aren't jailed for doing it.
Try thinking things through.
