It actually depends on how the message is delivered. You can usually tell when someone is teling you out of concern, it's the ones who proclaim it gleefully that worry me. It still doesn't offend me as such, but I'm concerned at the joy they seem to find in the idea of atheists being tortured for eternity. In fact, I'd hazard a guess that if they didn't believe in god and his wrath, some of them would be more than happy to help us along to that destination!

"No-one who decides that scientific evidence is not for him and that his own experience or the stories of others is the be all and end all of deciding what's true ever has the right to call people searching for reliable, repeatable evidence narrow-minded. That is hypocrisy of the most laughable kind." Derren Brown - Tricks of the Mind.
