RM — look at the context. She’s using it to insult the other poster. And this is not the first time.

Here's another example: a poster quotes the Bible as saying that "Noone comes to the Father except through Jesus," and another poster says "Waaah! That condemns me to hell and insults my dearly beloved ancestors - make him stop."

My reply would be much the same: "If the Bible quote offends you then you are "taking it personally" and should stay away from the "open" Religion Forum threads. You are welcome to start your own Oprah Winfrey school of theology caucus."

BTW "She's using it to" is attributing motive, which is making it personal.
