Well yes, but as long as he's not throwing PERSONAL insults at the reader, I don't see too much point in getting worked up. If he insults your beliefs saying stuff like "jesus was a faggot" or so, it still isn't a good enough reason to flip.. Freedom of speech and thought is what the "democratic world", as we call it, revolves on. (not just the USA!) Oh well, this is just my opinion on this whole matter .. it just gets boring to read and hear about all the offended people who are ranting for their cause.. :-) It takes quite a bit of self-discipline to stop me from posting about this some times (mainly because it's hippocracy in a way), but this time I let myself slip and voiced my opinion.
