Mysword in novel that would written with a flick of the finger

Mysword my novel Duality begins in a western setting, and I do plan to add some religious figures down the line, something like the ones in Desolate Era.

JohnnyKbca I'd be glad to take a shot.

Mysword Not really many people might see this as offensive and beside of everything that was mentioned before I think that you should not write things that may offend a big group of people or someone personally.

It's impossible to write without offending some people. However, religion is one of those sensitive topics that can REALLY offend the wrong people quickly.

SnoozySloth Of course but you can avoid topics that you know will offend someone.

Perhaps, but their is also a limit you must push (at least for comedic novels). I'd say the only topics I avoid when writing are probably real world religions and politics. Just about everything else is open game whether I offend people or not. =)

SnoozySloth I would say that making fun out off politics is safe as long as you ar not lathing at certain world-vies. It is quite obvious that when you started to mocking people who are against abortion cos they are backward or people who are for LGBT equality cos they are creeps they will see you as an agresor and would start to defend themselves. But if you are laughing at party A and party B equally with out picking a side I think you should be okey.
As for religious themes the things that annoys me are:
For first historical ignorance and portraying some religion and adding traits of the others religions to them. The finest example would be medieval Church burning witches on the stakes when for real "witches" were prosecuted after the medieval period in protestant countries.
And secondly cowardice of some authors who add disclaimer that "any resemblance to real live religion is coincidental" when you can clearly see that they are based on certain religion (most of the time Catholicism for any "Church" and Islam for religious extremism)

That sounds like a really weird concept I could endorse. I have my hands full with Shin Megami Tensei video games with God, Lucifer, demons, angels and levels (Which is sort of like cultivation).
