I was thinking this myself. How many hate letters does Adobe get because of
this? And how many people sent death threats to Timothy Zahn for calling
remote
control recievers "slave circuits" in his very popular post-Star Wars
series?
How many lovers leave the room when being called or calling the their lover
a "love slave"? How many Christians become atheists because the Bible
paradoxically calls them to be a "slave" of Christ?
Are not rhetorical questions a wonderful means of communication?
