I don't find it offensive, I do not think it can be true and currently, at least in the EU where I live and have lived, this is seen in this day and age as an American thing (the end of Don't look up for instance). And that people on HN believe that (logically inconsistent stories interpreted differently; your interpretion is already different from versions practiced where I grew up, where, by the way, the churches closed down mostly now) is beyond me, but each their own. If it makes you happy, who cares what others think.
