Well, I didn't say any of the above(i.e., strange, abnormal or weird). I just said 'curious'. Please read what I wrote as it is. And even though I didn't mean it, if you took offense, I feel sorry. In fact, except 'abnormal', all the words mentioned above don't have literal negative connotation, though, in practice, both 'weird' and 'strange' can. >For me, neither of them is offensive. Fine. >Am I strange? No. >Is my way of thinking curious to you? Which your way of thinking ? In the original post you said the first may be offensive. Now you say neither of them is offensive. If you think both are not offensive, my answer is no. If you think only the first is offensive, my answer is yes. That is exactly what i meant in my original post. >When I said the first one might be offensive to some people, I was afraid >there might be people who cannot tolerate to see Jesus on the Fun BB. OK? Yes, by exactly the same token, why wasn't you afraid there might be people who cannot tolerate to see sexual joke in a public forum. That's what I thought curious. And, please interpret my words as it is. 이거 한글 비비에서 영어로 말장난 해서 미안합니다. 쓰신 분이 한글 표시가 안되는 것 같아서 ... _______________________________________________________________________________ Yongsup Park \ park@anmsd3.msd.anl.gov / Why do I insist on Material Science Div. 223 \ park@casbah.acns.nwu.edu / AT&T ?
