She moves away from a "that's the way it has been always been taught" point of view to a progressive and accepting one that adapts to current knowledge, science and interpretation of theology.

This is one of the largest growing controversies in the United States. We have a lot of stubborn and close-minded people in this great nation. We all just need to open our hearts a little and accept these people and try to realize where they are coming from.
