Or you could actually READ what Mark said, and take his actual words to a
logical conclusion: that nobody should be excluded from having their voice
heard simply because that person is of a specific faith.

There will always be offense, not that Mark even mentioned someone being
offended, but everyone still has the right to be heard.
