And no need to be polite: a yokel like you would probably hurt themselves.
Oh but I do.
The problem is that by their own rules a Orthodox Jew would not believe this and neither would a Methodist. Both are of the faith belief that once you are dead you are dead. So your example was slightly off base.
There are hundreds of millions of individuals who care deeply about this sort of stuff (while you and I may not).
I doubt the "hundreds of millions" part. And they should get a grip. I refuse to join the club of the perpetually offended.
And no need to be polite: a yokel like you would probably hurt themselves.
Oh goody! Then I get to both laugh and point.
Actually I would do neither. The person would be, by their light, trying to do a good deed. I would accept that in the spirit that it was offered. So should the rest of the club of the perpetually offended. If you look for insults you will find them.
