I don't care how many people she brings to Christianity. That's not why I read her stuff.

I'm defending her because she's constantly misinterpreted. I know that's what she wants, but I'm a sucker for correcting people who go after her simply because she phrases something initially not so extreme in a fashion she knows people will perceive as inflammatory. Every outrageous thing she says is easily translated into wuss-speak (as I demonstrated earlier). It's not my/her fault if the Deutsch, CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, and HIV can't see past her jive. The fact that they're unable to means that she has effectively succeeded, many times, to put one over on them.

Phrasing something in an offensive manner does not make the implications of whatever's being said necessarily offensive.
