I bet that you've known at least a handful of people during the course of your life who seemed to be offended too easily. I have known quite a few. Some are even family members.
Maybe they are offended by "bad" language, going so far as to gasp in horror when they hear "a swear word." Or maybe they had difficulty with any sort of criticism, seeming so emotionally fragile that they would burst into tears if somebody dared to laugh at them. Perhaps they were Christian and protested whenever someone dared to use the name of their "lord" in a way they didn't like.
You have all known people like this. They might have seemed almost as if they were looking for the next offense to the point where they would see it where nobody else could. I think that these people have an important lesson to offer, and that we would do well to learn it.
