"she sounded slightly offended" If you offend someone, then you are responsible for the offending. And...by hypothetical syllogism: If you are responsible for the offending, then you have sinned through your offense. If you have sinned through your offense, then you must confess your sins. If you confess your sins, then you will be absolved through penance.  If you are absolved through penance, then you must sin no more. If you sin no more, then you will be saved. Therefore, if you offend someone, you will be saved.  If this sounds like moral schizophrenia, that's because it is.
