The criticisms are valid, as long as the article acknowledges where they are coming from, so people can judge validity themselves. At the moment, the article is overly vague imo - be clear that she's catholic, be clear that the criticisers are atheist, hindu, cultural critic or whoever they are. There is a vested interest and ignoring that has led to the objections to the article on the grounds of neutrality/bias, however you want to describe it.
