"I'm fairly sure that Zeus going around and raping/impregnating women is seen as patriarichal. >_>"

Err, yes. The whole Persues thing may well have been consensual but Heracles was based on a deception (shapeshifting to the form of the husband). I forget whether the others were consensual.

I think you're probably right on what she meant to say, although I didn't pick up on that context when I read her review. (Unfortunately, because of the controversy, the initial link seems to be down). So I think that critique is the one and only fair point of the complaint. On the rest of it, I think you have his framing techniques down cold. However, his personal interpretation is in all likelihood highly patriarcal. So probably, if he was being accurate, the most he could say is that "She seems to think that Christians are generally as bigotted as I am. That's simply not the case." She could have avoided even that critique if she used your wording.
