"All great truths start out as blasphemies." ~ George Bernard Shaw
I prefer Heinlein: "Of all the strange 'crimes' that human beings have legislated of nothing, 'blasphemy' is the most amazing...."
You seem bemused at "Santa"'s assertion that you inferred (presumably she means implied) that the sun is a god.
It looks reasonably clear to me: it seems that she started from the assumption that the employees who quit their jobs were right to assume that Feng Shui was a form of worship, and then took your tagline in that vein - instead of inferring that you were pointing out the anomaly in their behaviour, she inferred that you were also describing a form of worship, and supporting it.
From this, it seems reasonably clear to me that she was simply stupid.
