You have no right to demand I censor myself

As someone who has spent a fair amount of time over the last thirteen years posting on various religion and atheism on-line forums, I am all in favor of speaking out. I see nothing wrong with talking about gods and religion, even when it offends theists. What many of them don't realize - or don't accept - is that they don't have a right not to be offended. As you pointed out to Hamid in your exchange, If you're offended, don't read the remarks. You have no right to demand I censor myself because you might not like what I have to say.
