I popped over from the link in your lj post since I generally prefer dw. This is qable.
It makes sense for Rice to look at her own beliefs, look at what she was being told to believe, and make a choice (or multiple choices). It's no one's choice but hers as to which religious views she holds, or if she holds any at all. It's also her choice to affiliate or not affiliate with a given religious organization. It's definitely a personal issue and I don't really understand how it's anyone else's business but her own, so the part where it got wanked in the first place confuses me. Maybe I'm weird.
My complaint with the comments was that many commenters seemed to believe that Rice announcing her religious views was somehow directly related to her wanting people to buy her books, and that this was something to mock. Really, people?
