And it's consistent with all of your other posts in this thread where you clearly express the opinion that because a lot of people aren't offended by it, that no one should be and that those who are should just shut up.

I in no way meant that, nor implied that. The point I was making is that no one can control "who" will be offended, or if the reason for the offense is religion itself. It's not "the government's" fault that some religious people are "offended", that's the RELigious tenent that the government has no control over, nor should it. I never said "if the majority isn't offended, then no one should be". That's something YOU came up with. I DID say that it's not the fault of other people outside a particular religion if one religion has a religious issue with something. That's unfortunately something they have to deal with if that's the religion they are a part of. It's no one's fault.

For example, most of the major religions have extremely orthodox sects (that goes for Christian, Muslim, and Jewish) where clothing is a real issue. They have to dress a certain way, but more so they shouldn't be around people that aren't dressed that way (again in extreme sects). So that would make it a problem for some of them to show up at "the memorial" (or anywhere for that matter) where let's say people are dressed in hot July summer clothing. That's not the problem of all the people there that don't have those beliefs, that's an issue the people of that particular religion have.
