You sure are correct in that. We all have different things that offend us.

Perhaps my "no political agenda" is the wrong phrase. I don't mind a theme of politics in a book. What I don't want in my FUN reads is a book where the goal of the writer is to change people.

As info: I read a lot of non-fiction (church history, etc). When I read for fun I'm looking for just that.... fun. I hope that makes sense.
