    It was about the choice to feature this particular one. And some topics should be handled with a more decorous air, yes.

    So how would you have phrased it? I put it out there just as it was presented, save the vulgarity.

    I don't know how the OP could have gotten the import of the statement out, as blasphemous as it was, by using euphemisms. It's offensive, sure, but that was the whole point!

    I know a lot of Jews. Most are not religious. Some are Orthodox. Two are Baptist. None of them Hate Jesus.
    Being a Jew is kind of like being a Cherokee Indian. I know some fellow tribesmen who are blond haired, blue eyes, and get a sunburn by thinking about going outside. It don't take much blood.

    I thought his question was fine. You need to know what was said to properly respond.

    As I said, I'm talking about the decision to feature this on the front page. I'm assuming it's an administrator decision. I may be wrong. Was it your decision?

    Sure. Let "F Jesus" be the fist thing folks see. But then, pagan utilyan is allowed to belch his subterfuge, so I guess it's all par for the course.

    Any offense I might have would have been at your co-worker that made this comment. You, on the other hand, I'm cool with.

    And also with you, be well. The kid needs a bit of education, because he's running dangerously close to the unpardonable sin. Other than that, I'm not upset. That's what kids do.
