To be fair to sssshhhh (and my apologies if I am defending someone who doesn't want me to defend them), sssshhhh didn't say she was "trying to make your(her)self good enough by doing good things" - she just described how she lived her life; and it's probably the fact that the "ramblings of an out-of-touch old religious bigot" are also the statements from a senior member of the Church of England, and as such, taken seriously by some, if not a large number, of his church-members.
