Apparently this is the United Church of Christ in Wapole. Supposedly this this a mainline Protestant Christian denomination, but there's been some noticeable drift lately.
The UCC started socially liberal and has migrated farther since then (1957-60). I fear that some of its ministers are so open minded that their brains are about to fall out. [Yes, I have a beef with churches that push inclusivity right to the point of moral compromise.]
She leaves out an important point about the exclusivity. People, even Samaritans, can inherit eternal life - the are eligible to receive it. That is not the same as saying they pretty much already have it and don't need to change anything. Their doctrines are not eligible.
A lot of her argument seems to depend on the idea "those people who disagree with me are mean." She is very sweetly mean.
