"The Lord has redeemed all of us, all of us..." should we be grateful?

Sorry you feel that way. I feel like I've clarified my thinking for you quite thoroughly, so I'm not sure what I could have done differently. Do you have any other questions?

I do, if he doesn't...yes, what are your thoughts on my post explaining why a taboo against ridiculing something, like religion, is a bad idea?  You've clarified your position at length, I responded.  I hope we can have that conversation.

I feel like I have already explained my position on this at length, and that is why I did not respond.

I don't think it's wrong to challenge someone's beliefs. In fact, I think it's a good thing.

But I do think there is a right and wrong way to go about doing it. That's all I'm saying here.

Making fun of a friend is not the right way to go about it. And neither is constantly being on their butt about it.

Now, that doesn't mean I think making fun of people shouldn't be allowed. It just means I don't think it's a good thing to do. On or off the internet.
