sensitivity towards what might offend others.
Why is it that I never feel personally "offended" when my view of the world is mocked? I may be annoyed or amused at what I think is a display of ignorance. I have never felt that anything about me or my person has been affected in any way even when I am called "dammed" and "evil".

The very unnecessary personal, snide remarks made by all of us on
