"Make it more inclusive"

 I was attempting to design a vacation Bible school program for use in churches by Christians. The theme was spiritual warfare for Christians. I posted some of the art on Facebook, and this girl argued that I should make it more inclusive for all faiths. She said she didn't like materials that were for Christians only.

Okay, do you even know what vacation Bible school is? Do you understand what I'm trying to do? I don't think so.

I think if you ever set foot in a Christian bookstore, she would become very angry and demand the owners also be more "inclusive to other faiths." "Who gave you the right to make a bookstore for Christians only!" 

It's a niche market. You have a target audience. I'm not going to make a vacation Bible study talking about how great Buddha is, that's not what vacation Bible school is about, and I'm not sorry.
