A very interesting perspective, and one I don't share.

To me faith is important, I don't joke about someone losing theirs. If they think something I did had a negative impact on them I will do the best I can to ameliorate the situation.

At the very least I will express sympathy when it happens "on my watch" so to speak. And anyone who jokes about it will be called out.

When you say "faith". Please define that for me.

I am not going to be an appeaser. I expect people to mature in their faith. I expect Christians to know why they are saved. Knowing why you are saved will stand up against any offense by man. No matter if its as slight as what we are discussing or being asked to die for your faith.

God tells us to mature in our faith. If Christians dont, then they are on the wide path and its no ones fault but their own.

Hbr 5:11 Concerning him [Jesus] we have much to say, and {it is} hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing.
Hbr 5:12 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God, and you have come to need milk and not solid food.
Hbr 5:13 For everyone who partakes {only} of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an infant.
Hbr 5:14 But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.
