Dannika Nash is the college student who wrote a wonderful open letter to the Christian church at large:
...
The very honest, very blunt, very needed-to-be-heard-by-the-church letter had a serious impact.

It led the Christian summer camp Dannika worked at to fire her:

Sounds about right.

Seriously, I know that Christianity isn't the force of evil that people make it out to be sometimes. But things like this are EXACTLY what drive the church further and further into irrelevance.

Wow, good job proving her point. At least she's received offers to work elsewhere.

Yeah pretty much.

More, it's like, she's actually trying to help them out - she WANTS the Catholic Church to succeed - and they turn on her.
