Is this post offensive to a religon?

Trying to figure out my boundaries without breaking any rules about asking for clarification of the rules

    Don't say anything that is blatantly divisive, and you should be fine. You might not want to talk about it at all, just to be on the safe side.

    Oh, stuff like faith, politics, money, current events, etc. If you do, you risk a warning, or worse. OP, you can always PM a mod with your questions.

    As long as you're posting from a socially liberal point of view, you can get away with a lot on most forums...even here.

    I'm not sure if you are aware but this is a public forum where people from many different backgrounds and religions can both post and read.

    There are certain topics, which I am hesitant to mention, which can be offensive to religious people.

    I don't know anything about any groups you are talking about.

    I was asking you. I'm not religious at all, so I was wondering where you were worried about offending. Want to pm me I'll talk with you about it.

    What about topics that are not about religion or politics but certain religions might find offensive? Hypothetically speaking of course
    Please don't, just to be safe. Again, as long as you make it clear that you aren't attacking/disputing the rules, you can always PM Olivia or someone similar to ask those questions. HTH! :)

    Don't post any topics? Unfortunately I'm not familiar with many religions.

    Perhaps a good solution would to be have a list of approved topics we can talk about? That way no one would ever be offended

    You can never take away someone's right to be offended

    Is there something on the planet that isn't offensive to some religion?

    Christmas and Easter are so commercialized that the religious meanings have been desensitized. Same with Fat Tuesday.
