I’m the wrong guy to ask that question. Ask a gay guy.

“Offensive” is not “hate speech”. It is merely offensive. Stewart was offensive.

I’m quite sure it is tyranny of the oversensitive. The “desensitized” get regularly overrun by the whiners and complainers. There is an entire industry set-up around being oversensitive. Gay activists, feminists, race activists, etc., etc. Why Christians want on board with that kind of activism, I don’t know.

Every statement deemed “offensive” by any group is called “hate speech” and generates a half-assed boycott that never works. They’re trying to drive Limbaugh off the air for “hate speech” toward women.

Its all rooted in the same problem. “Offensive” is not “hate” ... and when “offensive” is deemed “hate”, that’s when you get lynch mobs over mere words. That’s when you get “political correctness”.

“I’m the wrong guy to ask that question. Ask a gay guy.”

Why did you bring it up then? Was it your goal to disparage Christians?

You don’t even realize you’re part of the problem. You’ve been so desensitized by political correctness that you haven’t a clue what it means to be offended.
