Well, you certainly haven't seen what I've been saying. I don't think either of the two "problems" you mention are problems. I don't care if she is disrespectful towards Christianity, and I have nothing against promiscuity. Neither do I care whether or not she has posed nude or been in sexually explicit movies. As I have repeatedly said before, I object to her because she promotes being a tease and using sex as a tool of manipulation rather than as a natural form of joy and communication.
