What's offensive is the ongoing use of religious belief to impose censorship.
History is full of examples of where people have been oppressed or even murdered
for saying something that religion found offensive. Galileo spent his last
years under house arrest and narrowly escaped murder, because he stated facts
that the church disagreed with. Others weren't so "lucky" and were
burned at the stake.

It nice to see that the Gov may finally let me watch movies
on my computer without making me a criminal. Not that I want
to, but one never knows. I only use Linux.
