I think it's pointless, but be my guest. I never felt the need to openly blaspheme anyone's religion, or to do so to simply make the opposing party nervous or offended.
Because I can assure you, they will be offended, and telling them not to is quite a stupid and bold thing to ask for.
I'm not asking anyone to not be offended. I am just demonstrating the absurdity of being offended. What I am offending is their ego, not any real god.
Of course they are offended, but so what? We cant live in a civil society always expecting others to only say nice things about each other, that is just egotism, insecurity and narcissim.
If they had a god to offend rather than a claim, it surely could handle mere mortals without their help, right?
What offends them isn't our blasphemy, what offends them is the thought that they really don't have anything to defend but their imagination behind the curtain which we have exposed.
It is nothing more than a childish reaction to pointing out reality rather than the self introspection of understanding WHY we make this demonstration. If they had any intellectual fortitutude they wouldn't act like brats to someone telling them the earth is not flat.
I will not apologize for calling a duck a duck and a naked assertion a naked assertion. ALL god claims in human history are baseless naked assertions and merely products of human imagination.
"Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions" Thomas Jefferson.
I find all claims of disembodied magical super heros in all of history REDICULOUS. If that offends someone who buys such a claim, that is their baggage, not mine.
