Dana, while I don't want to be so presumptuous as to "speak" for Victoria, I will say that I don't believe she was equating "lost" with "Jewish". I really don't. The fact that the writers may or may not have been Jewish is inconsequential. She was basically trying to "excuse" the material because whoever was responsible for presenting it apparently felt no sense of accountability before God (I felt the same way during "Whatever Works"). I also believe that she prefaced the meat of the article by filling us in on her past to let us know she was not coming from a place of moral perfection.

Thanks so much, Victoria. I felt the same way while sitting through "Whatever Works". While we weren't visually subjected to the bloody bowels of a sheep, we did hear about a "guy back home doing it" with one of our woolly friends ("back home", of course, referring to the bigoted, Jesus-loving, Bible-thumpin', one-tooth grinnin' south) . And I can completely understand why you cried. My husband asked me why I was that disturbed after the movie (I wasn't crying, but I was passionate), and I told him it made me sad to think that so many people were going to see it and think the message was right on the money. I was grieving, in a way.
