Well in a person I don't think context can be differentiated from an act. I think you can look at statements in isolation and say "OOOOH bad", but when you look at the person who is saying them, and why, it becomes more iffy- especially when you see how chopped and out of context some of the statements of Wright are. Many of his statements (though not all) are not nearly as bad as they seem to be if you see more of the sermon- and the man is speaking extemporaneously, and he is speaking over the course of 20 years.

I have no idea who you are talking about wrt a person being repeatedly insistent. Is it me?
