Political correctness is terrible in that it goes against freedom of speech. The purpose of free-speech is so that people can speak their minds—regardless if it offends. A religion is just a set of beliefs, why should it be immune to criticism?
On Blogger I am very tentative about posting things about Islam out of the fear of getting banned. And when I do post up things about Islam, I tend to put up a disclaimer ("not all Muslims are like this", etc.). Political correctness is the enemy of free-speech. Imagine if atheists got the same PC protection?
