E-mails and forum posts are commonly poor ways to communicate, and I may not have expressed myself clearly. When I used the word “allow”, I was referring to a tendency on the part of some conservatives and/or Christians to use a vocabulary defined by the Left. If I keep making it clear that a word means what it has meant all my life, then I am not allowing the other person to keep changing the playing field. I meant nothing more, and was not in any way trying to take away anyone’s freedom of conscience.
I understand.
