 :::The term ""sin"" brings hellfire and brimstone to many people's minds. And yes, of course ""self destructive"" has the potential to offend, but it is a more neutral and more accurate portrayal of the position. Why didn't you consider ""sin"" to be offensive? And why should the ""potential to offend"" only work one way? The term ""homophobia"" is much more offensive (besides being innacurate), but it is often bandied about on Wikipedia - and no mention is made of its offensiveness. We need to bring neutrality not only to one lone page, but to the whole issue, if Wikipedia is to be NPOV.  (UTC"
