No, I'm asking them not to call something that I hold sacred by names. That's all I meant. (Maybe I wasn't clear.)
Just like I wouldn't say, "Oh, that stinkin' Virgin Mary" and not expect my Catholic friends to get offended. I certainly don't expect others to live by it if they don't believe in it. And, btw, I hold books in high respect. Even books that (in my opinion) espouse crap. I find it very hard to throw out any book, no matter what I think of its content. Doesn't mean I would let my kids read it ... That would depend on the book and the child and what he/she could handle.
