Welcome Froix,

I agree with you, the right to not be offended implies that by exercising that right, we can control other people.

The reason that I asked the question was that another user had suggested that we do have such a "right" to not be offended in regards to prayer in school. He thought that people would be offended if forced to participate in a prayer in the classroom; I responded that nobody would be forced, but it did raise the question about being offended because people treat it as a right sometimes.
