That's Offensive ! ! !
A manger scene drawing by [a] fourth-grader ...was recently excluded from a holiday picture display to be viewed by parents attending [a]...Christmas program ... because it might offend someone.
I want to know what kind of person it is who could possibly get "offended" by seeing a picture, or any other symbol, indicative of someone else's religion. Sure, some symbols or pictures may not be in line with my beliefs. Yeah, and? It may not resonate with my religious sensibilities. So what? The symbol is meaningful to someone else and, unless it encourages kicking puppies, dining on orphans, or killing/enslaving nonbelievers, it is really none of my bees wax. In fact, I imagine I might find it offensive of someone told me that one of my meaningful symbols was "offensive" to them. ThanQ! King of Fools
