Please don't be elitist. Not everyone knows all there is about every religion. I haven't had the opportunity to work alongside people of most religious backgrounds like you so I don't know as much about different religions.
I didn't know what part of my post he thought was blaspheming and so far he seems unwilling to respond and clarify for me. I didn't know that the saying I used was a religious saying and that it would offend. I thought it was just a saying since I hear it on TV shows and its used by friends who speak english. After reading this thread and googling I was able to figure out that "Jesus christ" was a central religious figure in christianity. Where I come from everyone is Buddist. I have lived in the USA, in San Francisco, for a few years but never looked into local religion. Even my country's religion isn't something I follow. I can't know everything.
