Rick,
Words have more than one meaning, context matters as does the way the meanings of words changes with time and population generation, so does respecting others and not intruding on/in there/their space or beliefs.
This forum is not here for you to complain about how others talk or differences in culture, it is for all OS/2 and derivative operating system users to talk together, seek information, help, and exchange ideas no matter what religion or culture they are from. Take the words as they are said in context, if you don't like something then simply ignore it. Complaining about others in a fashion that I see as meaningless does no more than generate noise and serves no purpose. It is not helpful to you, to others, nor to whichever deity you may believe in.
We are all different and the measure of a person is how well they take these differences and work with them, not complain about or change others because they are not like you.
Now smile, go do something different and have a happy Christmas when it arrives in your part of the world
