    Is this offensive?

    The fundamentalist Christian posted a banner on his Instagram account in April that read: "Drunks, homosexuals, adulterers, liars, fornicators, thieves, atheists and idolators - Hell awaits you."

    Fundamentalist Christians won’t be posting long on Instagram without a degree of future fornication

    Context is important. I'm not offended yet...

    Personally, no though apparently I can expect to end up in hell on more than one count.

    Quite a timely post with my 'dignity at work' training completed yesterday.....

    It is worse when these fanatics are happy to help you on the way to hell.

    To drag a climate protester off the top of a tube train? Oh and give him a good hiding?

    Drag 'em off - dunno, I wouldn't endorse it personally, but I get why commuters were frustrated and it's hard to argue with them pitching him off, I suppose.

    Good hiding - no, pathetic. Fair enough, he'd made his point, caused some disruption and been hauled off. For a bunch of people to then start kicking him on the floor? Just not on, and instantly makes that mob a whole lot more offensive than someone protesting against the destruction of our planet.

    I passed around 30 Police riot vans heading south on the M6 near Preston on Monday, likely heading off to curb the Extinction Rebellion goings on, ironic all of that diesel being burnt, I understand the frustrations of the commuters involved this morning but the mob attack, no place for it scary times....

    If the authorities do not deal with these selfish protesters properly then more of this will happen. What right do these wasters have to disrupt the everyday lives of decent people?

    In my book, none.
