Subject: RE: BS: The GLESCA BIBLE
OK....I'll take that. Many of us found the other non-offensive including some solid Christians like Shad for instance.....and we also found it funny. Just another case of different tastes isn't it? Would you have felt differently though had Shad or Joe Offer posted the other one? The reason I say that is because its more acceptable to most people to poke fun at their own group. I grew up comfortable in Italian jokes.......except from outsiders.

Now that's not really a healthy attitude because it is a form of bigotry and/or racism, but its certainly a fact, for better or for worse. I'm not interested in starting an argument of any sort here, just a bit of thought food for the both of us.
