You are welcome.  You did not quote me completely, but I will give a
simple definition of what Jews should consider offensive.

Jews should find offensive the demand or the suggestion that the Jewish
community or Jewish culture should pass out of existence.  This has been
the demand or suggestion of many who have been hostile to the Jewish
people for the last 2600 years.  Is this acceptable to irreligious Jews?

I feel Marvel is making this suggestion.  Opinions?
