(348 posts)I'm sorry, but that extremist version of PC is just as muzzling as any other form of censorship. In the same way that comedy knows no bounds and has no lines, neither should intellectual inquiry. I can support my views with empirical facts and well researched, cohesive arguments. I doubt they can, but am always hopeful someone will. I would have no problem entering any church and telling them that I think they believe in "mystical sky fathers" and stone age superstitions...I've stated that case in front of far more hostile crowds than an African American church (jail). If they feel belittled by my frank and sincere assessment, then perhaps their faith isn't as strong as they'd like to believe it is. It is not said in a hostile or haughty manner. It is what it is. Religion is nothing more than mythology that hasn't yet been relegated purely to historical record.
