I'm not offended by your opinion at all!!! My sense, though, was that the disgrace was more because she kept choosing prostitution even after she had a man who genuinely loved her and wanted intimacy for the right reasons. She wanted what was familiar (albeit harmful) instead of what was good--like we all often do. And I think we were supposed to feel angry about the "christian" who raped her and married her best friend. I don't think the author was condoning it but adding some more edginess to the story. The truth is that so-called Christians do horrible things sometimes. You know the parable of the weeds mixed in with the wheat? Sometimes only God knows which is which until a thing like that is exposed. This is a really long comment. It would be fun to discuss it for real sometime (as well as other books).Blessed Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17044760950439616410noreply@blogger.com
