Well thanks for replying. I learned a lot in what you said, and in what you didn't answer.
For anyone who finds this type of view compelling, I think you need to ask these questions for yourself. Where is the harm? If you are saying that it is an emotional / psychological harm, then would would someones subjective offense justify and equal return of force as the OP? Is physical harm justified, because I am offended by your ideas? In which direction is the thinking running in this. Is it moving from the basis, and the general up (moving forward). Or is it starting off with X is wrong, and then moving backward to connect it?
